North Yorkshire County Council continues to invest in improved parking facilities for residents and visitors, with the installation of 19 new 251 Parkeon Strada Transfer terminals in Northallerton High Street.

The council is also investing for the first time in the Parkeon Parkfolio parking information and management system, with each terminal connected to the cloud-based platform, enabling the local authority to monitor the terminals remotely. Parkfolio generates alerts and provides access to financial information on each individual terminal.

As Tom Porteous, Northern Regional sales manager for Parkeon explains: “Parkfolio is an easy-to-use, flexible, web-based system that will enable the council to control the parking by monitoring live both financial and terminal status in an efficient manner in Northallerton High Street.”

A spokesperson for North Yorkshire County Council said: “The new meters are easy to use and the Parkfolio system allows us to monitor the meters remotely, which means we’ll know if there’s a problem and this in turn allows us to reduce maintenance costs.”
