New parking in Freising: Smartphone app revolutionizes parking!

Freising, Deutschland - The city of Freising goes into the future of parking with fresh ideas. From now on, drivers in the charming Bavarian city can comfortably settle their parking fees with their smartphone via the new * Parkster - simply parking app *. This emerges from a current notification of the Freising Stadtwerke, which have taken over the operation of the charging space subject to the fee. In the digital world that surrounds us, it is time to revolutionize parking.

With the introduction of the app, the parking process not only becomes easier, but also more flexible. Alternatively, drivers can continue to use the traditional parking machines. But the app has its very special charm: When registering for the Parkster app, there are no additional service fees, and payment is done either on account or by credit card. Also exciting is the possibility of express parking, in which you can pay directly without registration for a small service fee of 0.50 euros per parking process-this goes lightly via PayPal, debit card, credit card, Google Pay or Apple Pay.

new parking fees and their background

A big chunk that may make the hearts of the Freising drivers beat faster is the city council's decision to re -regulate the parking fees. After long 13 years in which parking was extremely favorable - only 5 cents for 3 minutes or 1 euro for an hour - you have now decided to increase the fees vigorously. With the new fee schedule, you now pay 50 cents for 20 minutes, 1.50 euros for one hour and 3 euros for two hours. However, electromobiles benefit from one exception: the first three hours free of charge.

These changes affect numerous public parking spaces, including Wippenhauser Straße, Kammergasse and Viehmarktplatz. The adjustment of the fees was without alternative for the city councils in order to promote the household consolidation. In addition, the parking machines are modernized, so that the payment is also possible here by card or cell phone, and not only with small change, as was often the case in the past.

The digital transformation in parking

In a larger context, the study from Fraunhofer IAO on the digital transformation of urban parking shows that digital solutions such as the Parkster app not only represent a simplification for the users. These technologies could also change parking behavior and limit unwanted traffic flows, while at the same time sustainable forms of mobility are encouraged. However, it remains to be seen what effects the simpler parking space on traffic in Freising will have.

Overall, it can be seen that the city of Freising is well positioned in order to deal with the challenges of modern mobility and to meet the needs of its citizens. So it remains to be hoped that the Freising citizens benefit from the new solutions and that parking in their city develops into a more pleasant experience through these measures.
