• Rooftop Ultrasonic Counters and Outdoor Camera System, providing precise rooftop and outdoor parking availability information.
• Unified Cloud-Based Software to control the entire system, ensuring seamless integration and user experience.

“The Neabsco Mills Potomic Commuter Garage represents an important step in improving transportation infrastructure and reducing congestion in Prince William County,” said Gorski. “The strategic location of the garage and the smart parking amenities it offers will ease traffic flow along I-95 and provide a convenient and reliable parking option for park-and-ride commuters.”
