City of Duluth and University of Minnesota Duluth Launch Mobile Parking App Powered by Passport

City of Duluth and the University of Minnesota Duluth today announced the launch of the Park Duluth mobile parking application. The app was created by Passport, the global parking technology leader who powers the parking apps for large cities like Boston, Toronto, Chicago, and Detroit.

“We’re excited to launch a custom parking solution that completely digitizes the parking experience for our residents and visitors,” said Mark Bauer, parking operations specialist for the City of Duluth. “By partnering with Passport, we are able to provide a seamless solution for drivers to pay and manage parking throughout our campus,” explained Lisa Norr, Associate Director of Student Life Operations.

Park Duluth allows users to quickly and easily pay for parking, extend their sessions remotely, and keep track of all parking history, as well as receive notifications when their parking sessions are low on time. The app is available at over 2,800 parking spaces throughout the city and university, in addition to other existing payment methods.

“Passport is thrilled to introduce Park Duluth for both the city and university,” said Mike Mohler, project manager at Passport. “With our state-of-the-art technology, drivers can efficiently handle their parking experiences through their smartphones.”

The Park Duluth app is free to download from the App Store and Google Play. Users can also manage their parking online at ParkDuluth.com.
