Fingal Bay Smart Parking
Fingal Bay Smart Parking Infrastructure Projects
Smart parking is designed to improve the turn-over of parking spaces to create more equitable access to parking in Fingal Bay. Smart parking also provides a revenue stream to support local infastructure projects. The existing resident and business Park Free Permit Scheme currently used in Nelson Bay will be extended to include paid parking at Fingal Bay. Similarly, parking guidance and payment apps will be extended to the Fingal Bay area.
All revenue generated from Smart Parking is reinvested into local projects. Smart Parking Infrastructure Plans are developed in partnership with the community to identify how the funds will be spent.
Revenue from Fingal Bay Smart Parking will help to fund projects in Fingal Bay.
