SKIDATA Partners With City of Berkeley California To Improve Visitor Experience!

SKIDATA Has Just Completed Their Latest Installation At The City of Berkeley’s Center Street Parking Garage.

The City of Berkeley, California selected SKIDATA to be a part of their downtown visitor improvement project which included a brand new parking garage for vehicles and bicycles. The Center Street Garage’s thoughtful engineering and design provides a convenient central parking location with nearly 50% more parking spaces than the structure it replaced.

Danette Perry, Parking Services Manager for the City of Berkeley, said, “It’s an exciting time in Downtown Berkeley for  the residents, visitors and merchants, having a new parking facility with great Smart Parking technology! Working with such dedicated staff at SKIDATA has really made the project that much more special.”

The SKIDATA project includes 8 lanes of Power.Gate columns outfitted with print at home readers and EMV credit card processing at all exit lanes along with Barrier.Gates. For additional payment options, there are 3 APMS – Easy.Cash credit and cash processing units as well as Credit.Cash, credit card-only-devices. For maximum convenience and a smoother visitor experience, SKIDATA worked with INDECT to customize a parking guidance system to provide real-time information on available parking spaces for each level of the garage.

Kevin Austin, Business Development – SKIDATA, shared his excitement, “We are incredibly proud of this partnership with the City of Berkeley on this beautiful new city garage and look forward to continuing our long-standing relationship with the city.”
