Parking terminals could soon be monitoring air quality in towns and cities across Britain as local authorities consider ways to tackle roadside pollution.
 
Parking technology company 251 Parkeon has developed a module for its Strada range of terminals that will capture air quality data and enable authorities to monitor levels of particulate matter and emissions such as CO2. The company says its parking terminals are open platform multi-service kiosks capable of integrating with smart third party systems, including supporting environmental monitoring technology.
 
Parkeon’s terminal-based ‘Park & Breathe’ system integrates air quality and noise sensors within the solar-powered Strada terminal and relays the data to a secure portal that can be accessed by environmental authorities.
