Pay and display parking machines to be upgraded in Dungarvan
These new machines will offer a much-improved experience for users, with a faster and more reliable service
Waterford City and County Council are set to begin working on the replacements of pay and display parking machines throughout Dungarvan.
The upgrade will be carried out over several days, with 20 new machines being installed at locations across the town.
These new machines will offer a much-improved experience for users, with a faster and more reliable service. They will accept both coin and secure debit/credit card payments, making it easier than ever to pay for parking. The machines will also display clear tariff information and helpful on-screen messages.
Each machine will also be equipped with vehicle registration entry to facilitate free parking, where required for customers.
Additionally, a new maintenance contract has been put in place to ensure ongoing support. A dedicated team will be responsible for keeping the machines in working order, helping to provide a dependable and hassle-free service well into the future.
Waterford City and County Council traffic wardens will be available throughout the installation period to assist members of the public and answer any queries, while the maintenance contract the Council has put in place will also mitigate against delays in addressing any issues that may occur.
For those who prefer a fully contactless option, the online parking app (which you can download here) remains available and provides a quick and convenient way to pay for parking without the need for coins or cards.
Waterford City and County Council's eParking app is free to download and can be used for either a one-off parking payment or an account can be set up. The eParking service is in operation at Waterford City and County Council owned car parks, and on-street parking spots.
Roll-out of the upgraded pay and display parking machines will take place across Waterford city and Tramore in the coming weeks.
Waterford City and County Council appreciates the public’s patience during this short installation period in Dungarvan.
