This summer, starting July 1st, the City of Bangor, Maine, launched a parking ticket amnesty program allowing overdue fines to be paid without late fees. The program came ahead of the introduction of The Barnacle, a new windshield-mounted enforcement device designed to replace traditional boots. By the end of the month, more than $9,000 in unpaid parking tickets were resolved, demonstrating the success of a program built on fairness and equity.[1][2] A CLEAN SLATE: THE AMNESTY PROGRAM Recognizing that past violations can snowball into burdensome penalties, Bangor’s July amnesty initiative allowed residents with violations over 30 days old to pay only the original fine, waiving late fees and doubled penalties.[2] To ensure residents knew about the opportunity, the city launched a broad publicity campaign that included announcements on local TV and radio stations, social media posts, updates on the city’s website, and signage in municipal garages and downtown areas. This outreach helped spread the word quickly, encouraging compliance, giving people a fresh start, and generating strong community engagement.[3] THE NEXT CHAPTER IN PARKING COMPLIANCE With the amnesty program wrapping up, Bangor prepared to roll out Barnacle devices for ongoing enforcement. Replacing the traditional wheel boot, the Barnacle attaches to a vehicle’s windshield, making it immediately visible and unsafe to drive until resolved. Drivers receive clear instructions for fast, convenient payment and self-removal.[2][4] “The beginning of August, we are launching what’s called the Barnacle, and the Barnacle is what used to be the boot on a car. So instead of on a tire, it’s going to be on the windshield. And so we wanted people to kind of get their ducks in a row in terms of parking so that they don’t have to receive the Barnacle and we wanted to kind of have that time to be able to explain what the Barnacle is,” said Biguita Hernandez-Smith, Economic Development Officer for the City of Bangor.[3] This approach ensures compliance while minimizing disruption, damage, and wait times. PARTNERSHIPS DRIVING SUCCESS  Bangor’s Business & Economic Development Committee emphasized that this success comes from strong collaboration across departments—from finance to code enforcement. Pairing digital tools like the ParkMobile app, a fair forgiveness program, and Barnacle enforcement is helping the city deliver on its promise to make downtown parking easier, more accessible, and more efficient.[5] SETTING A MODEL FOR OTHER CITIES Bangor’s early results show how cities can pairBst compliance and trust. By recovering thousands in unpaid tickets while giving drivers a path to catch up, Bangor is setting an example for other municipalities facing similar challenges.  Watch the Full News Story [6] Sources: Bangor Daily News (September 5, 2025). “Bangor recouped $9K in unpaid parking tickets after threatening to use the ‘Barnacle’.” Bangor Daily News.

Bethlehem, PA — Following the success of its curb management pilot project with Cleverciti, the Bethlehem Parking Authority (BPA) is taking the next step. The two organizations have now extended their partnership to roll out on-street detection, increased enforcement efficiencies, and digital signage for wayfinding—strengthening Bethlehem’s efforts to manage curb usage, traffic flow, parking compliance and the overall mobility experience. Building on a Strong Foundation Earlier this year, BPA and Cleverciti launched a pilot project using Cleverciti’s AI-powered aerial sensors to monitor offstreet availability, occupancy, turnover and compliance in Bethlehem. This pilot has already delivered valuable real-time data, enabling smarter decisions on parking operations. That foundation has proven the value of data-driven curb management for Bethlehem, and now the stakes are rising: to make all of parking more responsive, compliant, and navigable. What’s New: On-Street Detection & Guided Enforcement Under the expanded scope: On-Street Detection: Additional sensors will be deployed along selected streets and to detect when vehicles are occupying curb zones. These will not only monitor if a space is in use, but also capture metadata around duration, turnover, and unauthorized uses (e.g. overstay, loading vs. passenger drop-off vs. parking). Enforcement Efficiencies: With more precise detection data, the BPA can guide enforcement practices toward the broader goal of achieving compliance rather than issuing tickets. Automated alerts will notify officers when violations occur, allowing for more efficient responses. Over time, as patterns of misuse are revealed through data, enforcement strategies can become even more efficient and proactive, reducing the need for ticketing while increasing overall compliance. Wayfinding via Digital Signage One of the most visible changes will be the addition of digital signage across key entry points and thoroughfares: Signs installed at strategic locations will display real-time curb and space availability, guiding drivers toward available areas. The signage will also help with wayfinding: showing directions to nearby parking resources, loading zones, special event zones, or accessible parking. The aim is to reduce cruising, congestion, and emissions caused by drivers circling in search of parking, while sharing impactful information with the community and improving the predictability and experience of arriving in downtown and event areas. Expected Impacts & Benefits: Benefit - What It Means for Bethlehem Improved Compliance / Reduced Violations - Guided enforcement fueled by accurate, real-time detection means fewer illegally parked vehicles, overstays, or misuse of special curb zones. Reduced Traffic Congestion - With wayfinding and visible guidance, drivers waste less time circling, freeing up curb space and easing flow. Better Use of Curb Assets - Data will reveal where curb space is under-utilized or misused, allowing BPA to reallocate, redesign, or manage zones dynamically. Enhanced User Experience - Residents, visitors, delivery drivers, and businesses benefit from clearer information, more reliable parking, and easier navigation. Environmental & Operational Efficiency - Less idling, smarter routing, and more efficient enforcement reduce emissions and minimize overtime or inefficient staff deployment. “These solutions mark another important step in our commitment to providing innovative, data-driven solutions that enhance the parking experience in Bethlehem,” said Steven Fernstrom, Executive Director of the Bethlehem Parking Authority. “Having access to accurate usage data is foundational to creating a more accessible and vibrant downtown for residents, businesses, and visitors.” “Cleverciti is proud to deepen our partnership with the Bethlehem Parking Authority,” said Sonny Samra, Chief Revenue Officer, Cleverciti. “From our initial deployment, we have seen both the challenges and the opportunities for parking in Bethlehem. Adding detection, guided enforcement, and wayfinding signage allows for an integrated approach that creates a closed loop system—where data is continuously collected, analyzed, and acted upon —providing real-time information, actionable insights, and visible guidance, so Bethlehem can deliver a better, smarter mobility experience.” What’s Next As rollout advances, BPA and Cleverciti will monitor metrics such as: Uptake in compliant parking (decrease in violations) Reduction in time spent cruising for a spot Changes in turnover and space utilization in detected zones Operational efficiencies (e.g. enforcement response time, staff allocation) Bethlehem’s journey with Cleverciti shows how modern curb management isn’t just a back-office function, but a visible, interactive experience that shapes mobility, access, and the city’s daily flow. This new phase promises to sharpen that experience for everyone.

The October Ask the Experts column featured some great responses from IPMI thought leaders, but there is never enough space for all the great answers! Here are more thought-provoking responses.  How can large-scale parking operations (education, healthcare, airports, business parks, retail centers, etc.) leverage emerging technologies to improve both parking management and the overall mobility experience?   Scott Petri, President, Mobility Parking Advisors  “Analyzing gaps in existing technology or identifying best-in-class technologies for operational functions provides efficiencies, potential revenue, enhancements, and greater customer satisfaction, particularly when viewed from community needs and customer surveys.”   Cameron Lang, Sales Manager US, HotSpot Parking, a Product of Arcadis  “Cities and large-scale parking operations can use new technologies like curbside data, mobile apps, and automated payment systems to make parking easier and more efficient. These tools help maximize parking space usage, simplify entry and payment processes, and reduce paperwork. They also improve the overall traveler's experience by offering real-time updates on available spaces and connecting parking systems with other transportation options for seamless travel.”   Katherine Beaty, PTMP, President, Beaty Solutions  “When parking works well, people do not notice it.  Leveraging the right tech is what makes us invisible, and really, that is the goal.   For example, airports can sync with return flight information, allowing travelers to come back to a seamless handoff when using a valet.”   Erik Nelson, PCIP, Principal, Walker Consultants  “Large-scale operations need to carefully plan for the implementation of emerging technologies. Pilot programs are a good way to test functionality, but they can’t demonstrate a system’s ability to scale. That requires careful coordination with the vendor and stress tests of their system prior to broader rollout.”   Chris Phenner, VP of Business Development, Flash, Inc.  “Creating Digital Locations within platforms like Apple Maps, Google Maps, Ticketmaster, and TomTom can drive millions of dollars in bookings annually, and this channel is growing faster than expected.”   Brett Wood, PE, PTMP, President, Wood Solutions Group  “With an abundance of technologies supporting multiple facets of operations and management, we have more data than ever to truly understand user behaviors. Advanced operations are beginning to better utilize this data to better align resources and policies to the needs of the users, helping to better balance demands across all modes of transportation in the mobility spectrum.”
