April 23 2024 - 7:30AM
SP+® Corporation (SP+), (Nasdaq: SP) a best-in-class technology and
operations management provider of mobility services for aviation,
commercial, hospitality, and institutional clients throughout North
America and Europe, today announces its strategic partnership with
the City of Jackson, Mississippi, to modernize and enhance the
efficiency of on-street parking with a completely new and
innovative system.
Available this spring, on-street parking customers will be able
to pay for parking using new kiosks located throughout the city, in
addition to other payment methods, including text-to-pay with their
phone, or via the parking.com app. SP+ Corporation will also assist
the city with parking enforcement activities. These efforts will be
streamlined by providing vehicles equipped with License Plate
Recognition (LPR) technology to enforce expired meter parking and
time-limited parking. SP+ will also provide Parking Ambassadors to
assist in educating the public on how to use the new parking
system, as well as to answer any questions.
SP+ and the City of Jackson collectively developed a customized
program geared towards public safety and to support downtown
commerce. The new system will allow for parking space turnover and
availability, providing convenience and accessibility to everyone
visiting the city.
“We are excited to announce the upgrade of our parking meter
system in downtown Jackson,” said Chokwe Antar Lumumba, Mayor, City
of Jackson. “This modernized system will result in greater parking
space availability and convenience for residents and visitors to
Jackson. We look forward to this rollout and informing residents of
the details.”
"We're extremely thrilled to support the City of Jackson and
bring this project to life,” said Jason Spoeth, Senior Vice
President, Commercial Operations, SP+ Corporation. “We see this as
part of a bigger picture - the continued revitalization of downtown
(Jackson). We are providing the technology so residents and
visitors will have flexible options in how they pay for
parking."
The City of Jackson is the capital of
Mississippi, and the most populous city in the state, with upwards
of 430,000 residents.
