Control of reserved parking spaces for people with reduced mobility in Valencia in order to have a more exhaustive control.

Country: Spain
Project of: Control of Persons with Reduced Mobility
Main products: U-Spot M2M and control APP
The challenge

Improve the control and availability of PRM spaces to facilitate the daily life of users.

The spaces reserved for PRM are spaces with special characteristics for people who have the card that accredits them as Persons with Reduced Mobility.
These spaces facilitate their mobility as they have established minimum dimensions and are located closer to the entrances of the establishments.
The aim of the project deployed in Valencia was to increase compliance with the regulations for PRM spaces, to inform users of available spaces near their location and to detect the presence of unauthorized vehicles.

The solution

The project deployed in Valencia includes the installation of 1,060 sensors to improve user accessibility.

1,060 U-Spot M2M sensors were deployed to collect information on a web platform to enable real-time monitoring of the status of parking spots while automatically generating alerts for officers when an unauthorized vehicle is detected.
It improves PRM cardholders’ accessibility, as the data are captured and sent to users in real time. They can find out the occupancy of the parking spots at all times and know that they will find free spots if they need to travel.
Users have a better parking experience because they don’t have to drive around unnecessarily searching for a parking spot because they are guided directly to a free spot.

Benefits of implementing this solution
  • Compliance with the regulations for reserved spaces for PRM.
  • User control frees up fraudulently used places, which translates into more places available for those who need them.
  • Users have real-time information on where to find vacancies.
  • Reduces control costs thanks to real-time display of violations.
