The technology to manage car parking via cellphone (iParking) will be piloted on Ly Thuong Kiet and Tran Hung Dao streets from May 1 to August 1, according to the committee.
The project iParking is developed and implemented by the Hanoi Car Park Exploitation Company and CIS Investment Joint Stock Company, under Hanoi People’s Committee. It includes the digital mapping of car parking areas, the use of management software, and the installation of cameras to record vehicle registration plates in parking zones.
The Hanoi Car Parking Exploitation Company will work with CIS to develop the plan extensively and will be in charge of the whole process, from guiding drivers to find parking areas to collecting parking fees and supervising the implementation of the plan.
Currently, Hanoi City has around 1,100 parking lots, 200 of which are on roads and employ staff to watch vehicles and collect fees.

iParking offers users with convenient payment such as international payment card, domestic ATM card, SMS. The iParking app via mobile is applied in 8 countries and Vietnam counts the ninth on the list.
All information relating to car parks will be available online, and car owners will be able to find and book parking spaces in advance on devices such as smartphones and tablets. At the moment, there are 17 parking lots with capacity of 248 cars in the pilot project. Among those, 16 lots for parking from 6am – 10pm/day, 7 days/week; 1 lot for parking 24/24 hours, 7 days/week, start from May 1 and end on August 1.
The smart technology behind the system will also make it possible for vehicle owners to park their cars without help from parking staff.
Under the project, surveillance cameras will be installed at parking lots, recording the number of vehicles, their parking duration and the number of parking slots available. The information will be relayed to a data processing centre.
A sensor device will be attached to camera poles to read electronic parking cards and record vehicles’ information, such as licence number, vehicle type, time-in and time-out. Parking fees will be calculated based on parking duration, which vehicle owners can pay in cash or via bank transfer.
