Newtown Central Car Park is a shared, single entry/exit lane car park with a ‘tidal flow’. At either end of the lane there are red/green traffic lights. The approach off the street is down a ramp with a 90-degree left hand turn into the lane proper and then into the car park.

For this site, Ybern TPS engineers invented a unique tidal flow solution which has a small foot print and facilitates more turnover of car spaces.

The TPS tidal flow solution is fully autonomous making possible the economic use of a small space with restricted entry for car parking. It improves parking revenue and reduces costs.

For the car park operator and owners, the benefits of this installation include:

• No re-engineering of the entry/exit lane
• No re-engineering of the car park spaces
• Higher turnover of parking customers
• Improvement of compliance with parking rules
• Minimal on-site staff attendance
• Minimal maintenance
