Details

Portsmouth City Council’s (PCC) Parking Service is exploring options for the supply, installation and deployment of Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) equipment and associated software solutions for an existing Council vehicle. The solution will support patrols for the monitoring of Resident Parking Zones and untaxed vehicles, with the aim of improving operational efficiency and increasing service visibility. The Portsmouth Parking Service, managed by PCC, oversees all on-street and off-street council-owned parking, resident permits, and enforcement. The Portsmouth Parking Strategy 2024–2034 aims to manage this through increased resident permit charges, expanding Resident Parking Zones (RPZs) and promoting sustainable transport. Portsmouth experiences significant parking pressures due to high population density, constrained highway space, high levels of vehicle ownership and demand for resident parking. PCC operates an extensive network of Resident Parking Zones and wishes to explore whether ANPR technology could improve operational efficiency and service visibility. Portsmouth City Council is seeking to understand the range of ANPR solutions currently available within the market to help improve operational efficiency and increase visibility/resident satisfaction. The potential solution may broadly provide:

  • Vehicle-based ANPR solutions for parking management
  • Integration with parking and permit systems
  • Identification of parking contraventions
  • Reporting and management functionality
  • Potential functionality relating to untaxed or SORN vehicles
  • Delivery, support and maintenance arrangements
  • Indicative pricing approaches
