This initiative recorded more than £5 million earnings to property owners who had let out their parking space. GottaPark, a parking start up, has helped more than 10,000 vehicle owners in North America for the last six years by offering a peer-to-peer parking business model with a recurring customer base. Streetline (in the United States and Europe) has combined technology and innovation to offer real-time parking solutions to on-street and off-street parking areas benefitting the city councils, traffic management centres, and commuters. These new business models and innovative ideas are paving the way for futuristic vehicle parking solutions," summarises Mr. Barua.
