RSS6626 Image Sensing Systems has announced that its subsidiary Image Sensing Systems – Europe (ISS – Europe) has provided 4423 Nottingham City Council with a 539 CitySync ANPR access control system at the Broadmarsh Multi-Story car park (MSCP). Located in the city centre opposite Nottingham Crown Court, the council wished to introduce a designated contract parking area within the car park to provide local workers a permanent allocated parking space.

Having tried a number of other parking solutions, Nottingham City Council decided to install an ANPR system. Newpark Solutions won the project using CitySync’s ANPR solution providing an easy-to-use and reliable system for special access areas. The system eliminates ongoing costs for pass cards and the associated complications of managing them.

“The ANPR access control system is a great way to manage the contract parking area; it has made managing the car park trouble-free,” says Paul Crawford, Nottingham City Council car park manager. “We are considering extending the facilities provided by CitySync’s ANPR system within Broadmarsh car park.”
