Parking in the new normal

As the economy gradually opens up and business establishments cope with the new normal situation, vehicular traffic to commercial establishments is fast becoming a problem again. Adding to this predicament are the local government laws that prohibit street parking, which is essentially good to free-up space along the road network around Metro Manila. One wrong parking move and you’ll find yourself having your car burglarized or towed in business districts like Makati, Ortigas and Manila.

This is where SMART PARKING comes in. Smart Parking was first developed and used in Japan and eventually spread across to Korea, and its neighboring countries. One can convert an under-utilized space of 33 sqm (approximately two parking slots) and increase it vertically to 12 or 16 vehicles. Ingress and egress is not a problem as there is an optional turntable that can go with the unit. At 12.5 sqm per slot, that is an extra 150 sqm - 200 sqm of “real estate” that you have added into your existing property that can attract tenants and customers to your building.
