A new ADNEC smart parking system has been launched at ADNEC Centre Abu Dhabi, a project aimed to leverage the experience for the venue’s annual 3 million visitors.
The ADNEC Smart parking system applies internationally recognized technology and integrated digital services to manage parking more efficiently, from entry to exit, providing visitors, exhibitors and event organizers with a more convenient parking journey and increasing the accessibility of the venue.
World-class features
The ADNEC Smart Parking System has a feature that uses high-definition cameras, capturing vehicle number plates upon entry and issuing digital parking tickets within seconds. Message screens inside the parking facility will provide real-time updates on available parking spaces, allowing visitors to locate open spots more quickly and reduce congestion. This system will greatly improve both visitors’ and exhibitors’ experience of having a smoother flow eliminating the inconvenience of searching for parking.
By minimizing delays and streamlining entry and exit, the ADNEC Smart Parking System supports smoother event operations and contributes to a more efficient flow of traffic throughout the premises. This enhanced functionality reflects ADNEC Group’s ongoing commitment to leveraging smart infrastructure to elevate the overall visitor experience.
