Guide to stress-free parking

No more hunting for parking - just spot the green light

The system, developed by Nortech International, uses state-of-the-art technology which co-ordinates vehicle movement within the parking facility. Using real-time information on occupancy, drivers are directed to available parking spaces by intersection guidance displays and colour-coded LED lights - red for occupied, green for available, yellow for mom's and tots and blue for disabled - placed above every parking bay.

Automatically adjusting ambient light conditions, the system effectively runs off a low power base, in line with the commitment by Old Mutual Investment Group Property Investments to reduce energy consumption across its managed properties. Brenda Bibby, centre manager, says the system will alleviate parking congestion and allow customers to park in a stress-free environment, adding to the Cavendish Square shopping experience.
