Car Park Management and ANPR System Implementation

Avanti West Coast (AWC) operates 16 railway stations directly and provides train services across a broad network. The company currently manages car parking facilities at these stations to support rail travel and generate revenue through parking charges. AWC also provides staff parking in dedicated and public car parks. Currently, car parks are operated using traditional barrier systems and payment terminals located at station premises. AWC is seeking to modernize its car park operations through a single comprehensive contract that includes: (1) deployment of cloud-based, barrierless automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) technology to enable frictionless entry and exit; (2) implementation of a cashless payment platform to streamline transactions; (3) ongoing car park management services. Successful bidders will transform the customer experience by eliminating manual barriers and payment terminals while maintaining reliable revenue collection and operational efficiency across all AWC station car parks.
