IoT Network Delivers Real-Time Data On Parking Availability
GCN, February 22nd, 2023
Data from low-power internet-of-things sensors buried under 4,500 on-street parking spaces will help Arlington County better understand the feasibility of demand-based pricing for metered curb space.
Arlington County, Virginia, is starting a pilot project to improve user experience with metered parking in two commercial and residential corridors.
The three-year Arlington Performance Parking Pilot project, which started this week, involves the placement of sensors buried under 4,500 on-street parking spaces, or stalls, that will transmit data the county can use to better understand and influence demand for metered curb space in the popular Rosslyn-Ballston and Richmond Highway/Pentagon City/Crystal City neighborhood corridors.
