UK-based metric parking is to supply a further twenty-seven of their Elite pay and display parking machines for an extension to a parking project in a suburb of the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur.

The order follows the shipment of eighty-two similar machines last year to the city of Petaling Jaya and brings the total number of Metric machines in Malaysia to more than 1,000.

“This latest shipment is one of many Metric have made to Malaysia over the last 15 years.  As far as I am aware, Metric has been selling this type of pay and display technology to Malaysia for longer than almost anyone else.”
