Melbourne trials pay-by-phone technology in Carlton


The City of Melbourne will be trialling pay-by-phone technology in the Carlton area, allowing customers to pay using their mobile
phones at on-street metered spaces.

This is another step in the project announced earlier
this year by the City of Melbourne to employ modern technologies to more
effectively manage its on-street parking bays and improve customer service by
providing additional ways of paying for parking. You can read more about the
range of technological advancements planned by the City of Melbourne, including
in-ground sensors, license plate recognition systems, and a hand-held device
update for enforcement officers on our previous post ‘New car parking technology for City of Melbourne’ here.

The program will be fully implemented by the end of
October, and will see none of the existing meters, tariffs and rules changed
during the pilot period.
