Ticketless parking payment systems specialist Veri-park has launched an advanced vehicle counting technology that can be integrated with 129 Swarco and third-party variable message signs (VMS) to better direct traffic through busy town centres.

The system uses loop counting detection at car parks’ entrances and exits, removing the need for onsite hardware.

Veri-park securely transmits data via the cloud to the VMS to give drivers up-to-date and accurate information on the availability of car parking spaces, helping local councils to improve traffic flow, reduce congestion, and minimise pollution and journey times.
