North America-based Parkmobile has introduced a new app feature that shows on-street parking availability making it easier for ParkmobilePro members to find a parking spot in over 100 cities across the United States.

In addition, members will receive discounted transaction fees, free roadside assistance as well as offers on oil changes and rental cars.
