We see more and more cars on the streets every day. Our cities become more congested and finding a space to park can be a real nightmare. We tend to miss our appointments only because someone has just taken a parking space which we thought would be ours.
winPark’s free and user- friendly app based on social network can tell you where you can find an available parking space. Just open the App, and check for the parking spaces. You will see where a parking space near you is going to be available. So, what exactly is winPark? Well, it is a map-based mobile app (as you see in the picture below) which uses gamification elements. It also relies on cooperation between users. In the app, there would be registered drivers who would mark available parking spaces. Before they depart and free up their parking space, they will add their position and inform the nearby drivers of the available parking space. Inbuild maps will help both drivers (driver 1 who is interested in releasing his parking space and driver 2 who is interested in reserving the parking space) in the ecosystem to search the parking spots quickly and easily.
Why do we need to solve the Parking Space problem?
Well, the statistics based on research conducted in the US, UK and Germany is important to be taken into consideration along with our own negative experience in finding a parking space at times. Let us look into the statistics first:
• Average Loss of time in finding affordable parking spot per driver in the UK – 44 hours per driver
• Average Loss of time in finding affordable parking spot per driver in the US – 17 hours per driver
• Fines paid in Parking ticket in UK - $44.2 billion annually
• Fines paid in Parking ticket in Us - $95.7 billion annually
• Stress and Anxiety issues in drivers – 69% as per 2016 Survey in UK
• Missing important appointment like hospitals, meetings, flights, business meetups – 40% as per 2016 Survey in UK
Above survey shows one very important thing and that is – parking problem is big! And it is being ignored. This has caused not only huge loss in terms of money, but is also responsible for the other traffic issues. Car in today’s world is a necessity rather than a luxury, and thus parking has become an equally important aspect of day-to-day life. People often end up parking in no-parking zone whenever they are in an emergency situation say for ex: hospital visits. All of this results in traffic woes around the hospital for other drivers and ambulances. It is a circle and thus someone had to find a solution to this important vicious circle. Thankfully, winkPark came to rescue with their innovative mobile app.
