Innovative parking solution using the CWT Compact implemented in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA

Cale America has teamed up with Gtechna, a company that specialises in handheld devices for enforcement, to bring a parking and enforcement solution based on a car’s unique vehicle registration number.

The Cale/Gtechna partnership has previous experience with other installations in North America, notably in Whistler (Canada) and Washington DC (USA), where similar integration has proved to be very successful.

The new pay-by-licence plate technology, based on the CWT Compact terminal, provides many advantages to customers. After purchasing time from the terminal, customers do not have to return to their vehicles to display a receipt. Receipts are available, but are optional and are not required for compliance.

In addition, customers are now able to pay at any pay station in each rate zone for added convenience. With these enhancements and the added option for credit card payment, the terminal upgrade project has received much praise from the Pittsburgh business community as well.
