4172 Boomerang Systems, a leading designer and manufacturer of fully automated robotic parking and self-storage systems, has announced the formation of a strategic partnership with Stokes Industries, a veteran parking industry provider with over 25 years experience in mechanical parking solutions throughout the world. The two companies have formed a joint venture that will provide the North American market with a full line of mechanical parking products and services, including design, engineering, installation and maintenance.

Although mechanical parking systems such as stackers, lift-slide or puzzle park are not fully automated, they provide many of the same space saving benefits of fully automated robotic parking systems. By partnering with Stokes to provide mechanical parking systems, Boomerang says it can now provide developers, architects and parking operators with a full suite of parking density solutions.

The name of the newly formed partnership is Boomerang-Stokes Mechanical Parking, doing business as Boomerang MPS, with day to day operations managed by the JV's president, Peter Anderes. The company will operate out of Boomerang's New Jersey offices.

    Next year sees the start of the first real-life electrified road system for transporting freight. Worldwide freight transportation is predicted to double by 2050 but despite expansion of global rail infrastructure only one third of this additional freight transport can be handled by trains. This means that the largest proportion of freight transport will continue to be by road and as a result, experts expect global CO2 emissions from road freight traffic to more than double by 2050.
