The City of Cleveland Ohio is adopting the ParkMobile app to provide for on-demand parking throughout central Cleveland. Once launched, users will be able to pay for parking digitally via the app by entering a zone number posted on nearby signage. Drivers will also be able to pay through a mobile web browser.

“ParkMobile is the trusted parking and mobility management platform for more than 600 cities across North America. By eliminating the stress of parking in urban environments, we’re working towards our mission of making cities more liveable,” said David Hoyt, Managing Director of ParkMobile. “We’re thrilled to partner with the City of Cleveland to overhaul its downtown on-street parking operation and assist in improving its curb management with the introduction of our smart parking platform. Through the adoption of our mobile app, Cleveland’s residents and visitors will be able to enjoy a seamless parking experience to spend more time enjoying the restaurants, retailers and entertainment offerings downtown Cleveland has to offer.”

ParkMobile is focused on expanding its footprint in the US Midwest region. The company currently serves over one million users in Ohio, with availability in cities such as Columbus, and the state’s largest universities.

“Smart parking is a major stride toward my administration’s goal of modernising operations throughout the City of Cleveland,” said Mayor Justin M. Bibb. “We are thrilled to partner with ParkMobile to introduce this advanced technology and provide both residents and visitors with a much-improved parking experience in our city.”

ParkMobile has 50 million users across North America, is available for both iPhone and Android devices, and can also be accessed on a mobile web browser.
