Technology

Parking professionals operate at the intersection of policy, technology, and public expectations, yet one challenge continues to surface across the industry: when outcomes fall short, the blame often falls on frontline employees, even when the issue lies with the system itself.

Boonton is joining other New Jersey towns by rolling out a pilot program that uses photographic technology to identify parking violators on Main Street.

For years, cities faced a hard choice when modernizing parking and curbside operations: adopt an all-in-one platform and accept the trade-offs, or stitch together best-of-breed point solutions and manage the integration complexity. Rip-and-replace migrations only raised the stakes, often proving disruptive, costly, and slow to deliver.

It seems parking is always a problem in the mind of every driver as they approach their destination, including me, who knows that there is definitively no parking problem. It seems this tendency to think if we cannot park right in front of the place we are going then “without a doubt there is a parking problem!” When walking a few extra steps (i.e., a block or two) is good for us and is NOT a parking problem. This parking conundrum seems to have entered our minds instinctually from the time we started driving and convinces us we have the right to park in front of where we are going.
