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.
