Flowbird Is Excited to Share with You the Latest News about Hong Kong

The Transport Department (TD) announced on January 17 that, as one of the smart mobility initiatives, the replacement of about 9 800 existing roadside parking meters by the new ones in Hong Kong has been completed to replace the old Octopus-card operated parking meters.

The new parking meters support the payment of parking fees through multiple means and are equipped with sensors to detect whether a parking space is occupied. The new meters also support on-site and remote payment of parking fees through the mobile application “HKeMeter”. Details are available on TD’s website. For enquiries, members of the public can call the 24-hour customer service hotline at 2332 3700.

Besides, the TD reminds holders of unredeemed e-Park cards who wish to apply for a refund must visit the designated outlets on or before June 30, otherwise, no refund can be made. Details of refund locations are as follows :

• 12/F, HKT Lockhart Exchange Building, 3 Hennessy Road, Wan Chai
