Summary

My proposal is that each parking space should have a sensor which tells whether or not it is occupied, and this should be bookable over the internet

Description

What I am proposing

Finding parking in town can be stressful and can discourage shoppers from visiting the town centre because they do not know whether they will be able to park. My proposal is to create a system of bookable parking spaces

How it will work

Technology could be used to work out whether a space is available. This space would be bookable over the internet. The booking system could even automatically send the location of the parking space to the car's Sat Nav system. 

 

Why do this?

By making parking spaces bookable, people will know that they will be able to park and will be encouraged to visit the town centre.
