ParkMobile, the leading provider of smart parking and mobility solutions in the U.S., announced a partnership with the City of Little Rock, Arkansas, to implement the company’s smart mobility app at approximately 1,400 on-street parking spaces around the city. With the recent COVID-19 crisis, many city leaders are encouraging residents to use the app versus the meter to prevent the spread of the virus.

“As we navigate this uncertain time, we want to do everything we can to prevent the spread of the virus and maintain everyone’s health and safety,” said Jon Ziglar, CEO of ParkMobile. “As ParkMobile’s reach expands and integrates with more cities, we are seeing a rise in contactless payments for parking. We are thrilled that the people of Little Rock will now have this option as well.”

Within the ParkMobile app, users are able to quickly create an account and register multiple vehicles. When parking, users can simply enter the zone/space number found on nearby signage, set duration of time they want to park, and touch the “Start Parking” button to begin their session. From their devices, ParkMobile lets customers pay for parking on-the-go and, if available based on city parking requirements, users are also able to add time to their parking sessions right from the app rather than having to go back to the meter.
