Abstract

ParkNow is a community-driven parking platform that allows landlords to profit from their vacant spaces and matches car owners with available spots. This hyperlocal digital solution optimizes space utilization and reduces traffic by leveraging technology to address urban parking challenges. Inspired by Park+ and JustPark, ParkNow enhances the customer experience by integrating safe transactions, AI- powered suggestions, and real-time data analytics. It promotes the shared economy model, which contributes to the sustainability of cities and is consistent with Smart City and Appropriate Technology efforts. The growth, challenges, and impact of ParkNow on the evolution of digital governance and urban mobility are examined in this paper.
