The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) will begin testing a new smart parking management system at Lumpini Park in September as part of efforts to ease chronic parking congestion and improve convenience and safety for park visitors.
The BMA said the upgraded system is designed to address the long-standing problem of motorists leaving their vehicles in the park's car park for extended periods while travelling elsewhere, reducing the number of spaces available for visitors, particularly during the busy morning and evening exercise periods. The project forms part of the city's wider push to modernise public facilities through technology while ensuring parking spaces at one of Bangkok's most popular parks are used more efficiently for their intended purpose.
