Because the multi-storey car park in Gmund is regularly full, Rewe and Maximilian customers cannot find any parking spaces.
Now the use by unauthorized long-term parkers is put a stop to.
Gmund
– Word has gotten around that the underground car park at Gmund's Rewe market is convenient and, above all, free of charge.
The result: the parking space – actually intended for the customers of the supermarket, the Maximilian inn and the local medical practices – regularly ran out.
"Lately, the garage wasn't just jam-packed at peak times," says Rainer Penther, whose property manager looks after the entire complex.
A stop has therefore now been put to use by unauthorized long-term or permanent parkers.
If you exceed the maximum parking time, you will receive a ticket
In order to prevent car owners from ignoring the free maximum parking time and thus blocking urgently needed customer parking spaces, a modern, fully automatic surveillance system was recently installed for the underground car park, as Penther reports.
In practice, this works as follows: Cameras register the individual vehicles with their license plates as they enter the car park.
Anyone who exceeds the specified maximum parking time of three hours will be reported and will receive a ticket after a corresponding query to the owner.
“It all happens digitally,” explains Penther.
Maximilian guests can extend their parking time via a terminal
By the way, guests of the Maximilian who want to stay there for a longer period of time need not worry.
"We have found a solution for this," says Penther.
Guests can register with their license plate number at a terminal in the inn - this way, the parking time can be extended free of charge.
Even people crossing the Alps parked their vehicles in the garage for a few days
Penther leaves no doubt that the introduction of surveillance was necessary.
Many would have parked their vehicle in the customer garage in order to then go on a bike tour in the mountains or enjoy a nice day swimming at Tegernsee.
"It just got the upper hand," says the property manager.
Even hikers crossing the Alps would have parked their cars here for the day.
