Scan Car for Parking Operations...

Waldshut-Tiengen continues to drive the digitalization of parking! Following the introduction of our Citea parking machines with integrated license plate functionality and the complete elimination of paper tickets, the next milestone is now underway: the introduction of a scan car.

Equipped with cameras and laser technology, these vehicles automatically detect parking activity—naturally in compliance with GDPR and the highest data protection standards.

Once again, the city of Waldshut-Tiengen can rely on our Citea: automated parking enforcement is based on license plates recorded at the Citea machines, which are made available to the scan car.
The interaction between our parking machines and scan cars has been tested in real-world use—such as in Belgium, where similar processes have been successfully implemented for over 15 years.

The result:
✅ More efficient and comprehensive parking enforcement
✅ Fairer monitoring for all road users
✅ Relief in the face of the municipal skilled labor shortage
✅ Fewer errors thanks to digital license plate matching

Bottom line: a real boost of innovation for everyday municipal operations, with pilot operations set to begin in the first half of 2026!
We’re excited to partner with Gleichauf in supporting and shaping the digital transformation of parking management in Waldshut-Tiengen.
