New smart parking in Qatar mall

The vertical parking can accommodate 16 vehicles in two conventional parking space

A new smart parking system has been rolled out at Villaggio Mall that can accommodate up to 16 vehicles in the equivalent of two conventional parking lot spaces. The scheme, known as “rotary parking,” is located near the VIP entrance of the mall and will be tested by the shopping center for free for six months. If it is successful, those behind the system hope to introduce it across Doha to help tackle the city’s severe parking crunch.
Speaking to Doha News, Mohamed Magdy, senior sales manager at My City for Technical Solutions (MCTS), said that since the scheme was launched at Villaggio last week, many people have expressed interest in the system and wanted to know more about how it works.

How it works

Magdy added that the smart parking will be most useful during the weekends, when the increased number of visitors makes finding a spot difficult.
Villaggio’s available parking space has shrunk in recent years, in part due to an ongoing expansionas well as Doha Metro works.
