City of Monterey Upgrades Paid Parking Kiosks

Posted on July 14th, 2022 by omba

The City of Monterey has just completed an upgrade to a number of parking stations in off-street locations in Downtown Old Monterey. A variety of outdated pay-and-display and pay-by-space meters have now been replaced with Flowbird Smart Parking kiosks.

The new parking system features a pay-by-plate parking kiosk with a 9.7” full color touch display that is accessible for all customers, including meeting Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, and offers a choice of languages. The touch screen display has the look and feel of a tablet, walking users step-by-step through the transaction process, and it's compatible with the ParkMobile app that the City introduced in 2019.
