WPS has won a contract to provide its ParkAdvance technology at two car parks in the Princesshay Shopping Centre in Exeter and the city more generally. The technology is designed with the intention of enhancing customer experience and reliability.


Parkadvance features a new IP-based operating system architecture that enables the parking system to connect directly with multiple technologies being deployed in car parks both now and in the future.

The WPS systems installed at Princesshay, and its attendant car park in Summerland Gate, are both managed by car park operators, National Car Parks.

    TM 2.0 views connected vehicles and V2I as two-way communications channels, benefitting traffic management and drivers, as Alan Dron discovers.

With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne

    Antaira Technologies’ marketing engineer Brian Roth explains why the increasing capacity of wireless bridges is reducing the cost of expanding and upgrading ITS networks. With more than half of the world’s population now living in cities, the need for efficient transportation of both people and goods has never been greater and that pressure is unlikely to ease any time soon. Indeed in many regions of the world the rate of urbanisation is still increasing as the demand for rural workers continues to decline.
