The initial situation

The Hörnlebahn was facing a considerable loss of revenue as many users bypassed the parking ticket machines and were able to park unchallenged at off-peak times. Athletes in particular were using the system without paying fees or fearing consequences. This led to unfair conditions for paying customers and left valuable revenue unused. A barrier system was not an option due to the difficult access conditions on the slope, so a barrier-free and continuously functioning solution was urgently needed.

The solution

With the Wemolo solution, the Hörnlebahn was not only able to continuously monitor parking lot usage, but also increase customer satisfaction and willingness to pay. Thanks to seamless management, parking fees are charged fairly and equally to all parkers. Customers of the cable car now even receive a parking discount.

Reliable management around the clock:
The camera-based system and the all-round carefree package guarantee smooth operation at any time of day or night. Regardless of weather conditions such as snow and ice, the cameras reliably record all parking processes. Within just three months of its introduction, the number of parking violations was reduced by 92%, resulting in a significant improvement in parking space management.

User-friendly & fair parking system:
Thanks to the barrier-free system, users are able to enter and exit easily. The high-resolution entry and exit screens greet customers in a friendly manner and draw their attention to the barrier-free system. On exit, the screens remind parkers of any outstanding parking fees, which can be paid up to 24 hours after exit. This leads to a high level of acceptance of the system and a significant reduction in the number of non-payers. 59% of users prefer the convenience of paying by card at the machines, and customers of the cable car can discount their parking via a customer-friendly QR code flyer.

With the innovative, digital parking solution from Wemolo, the Hörnlebahn in Bad Kohlgrub has not only increased its revenue, but also created a fair and user-friendly parking system that can withstand even the harshest weather conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to install the Wemolo system?

The costs for installing the digital system vary depending on the location-specific conditions of the parking area and its size. In an initial non-binding discussion, we will be happy to advise you on how to develop a tailor-made solution for your parking space and to prepare an initial cost estimate. Please contact us and our park experts will get back to you as soon as possible.

Do I buy the hardware?

The hardware required for parking space management remains the property of Wemolo GmbH during the contract period and is therefore not purchased by you. Wemolo is responsible for the reliable operation of the hardware.

What requirements must the parking area meet?

Wemolo has a solution for almost every parking space. In a non-binding conversation, we will be happy to show you what needs to be considered in your parking space. In principle, clearly identifiable entrances and exits, a power connection (230V) and good data reception (LTE/5G) are an advantage.

Where do you position the license plate scanners?

The license plate scanners are installed near the entrance. The exact location varies from location to location. Our license plate scanners have a range of up to 100 m and can capture a width of approx. 12 m. They can therefore be mounted on facades, lamp posts or on roofs.

What measures are being taken against third-party parkers?

Third party and long-term parkers who park their vehicles without authorization are recognized by our system and automatically receive a sanction notice.

What does the local signage and marking look like?

Terms and conditions and information signs are installed on each parking space, which draw attention in unpaid parking space that it is a customer parking space with a corresponding maximum parking period. The corresponding contractual penalty for infringement is also clearly visible. In paid parking spaces, these signs are supplemented by others that explain the parking process using the digital system. The signs are large and easily recognizable at the entrances and exits and on the parking area. Vehicle owners agree to the terms and conditions by driving into the parking lot.

How does optimizing parking control work with a camera system?

Our digital parking monitoring uses electronic means to monitor your parking spaces. Using AI-based software, cameras reliably record the license plates of all vehicles — without any barriers.

Are the parking time limits in this system optimally designed?

The use of digital systems makes it possible to optimize parking times. Parking space use is made efficient with parking time limits and long parking times are avoided. The parking time limit is set in consultation with your individual needs at your location.

What advantages does digital parking space monitoring offer compared to conventional parking systems with parking disc and barrier?

Companies benefit from optimizing the search for parking spaces for customers and thus creating a customer-friendly atmosphere, as nothing else needs to be considered. Optimizing parking monitoring also reduces the workload for your employees.
