As is already the case at the Helmut-Kohl-Europaplatz, Costa Smeralda and Marktplatz Idar parking lots, it is now also possible to pay parking fees by cell phone at the newly designed parking lot in Austraße. The motorhome parking area at the Weiherschleife can also be used via the system.
The parking ticket machines will remain in operation at the same time. Information about the new service providers and instructions on how to get started with cell phone parking can be found there. Drivers can start the parking process using the app. They can stop their parking time to the minute or extend it from the store or café as required.
This means there are no overpayments or fines for expired tickets. Several providers are available via the "smartparking" digital parking management system, so customers are free to choose which app they prefer. The system is environmentally friendly, paperless and stress-free, as there is no need to search for change and there is no need to take a parking ticket and bring it back to the car.
