Finding a parking spot in downtown Stratford may have just got easier.
In a press release, the city says it’s moving forward with the next phase of its Smart Parking pilot project with the release of a real-time online map that shows the availability of municipal parking spaces in the downtown core.
Last fall, the city says parking sensors were embedded in the asphalt at 78 downtown parking spaces, along Wellington, Downie and Albert Streets.
The sensors transmit signals through a wireless network to indicate whether a vehicle is parked in the spot or not.
