ParkMobile launches in the Village of Dobbs Ferry, expanding contactless parking payment options in New York State
Amid COVID-19 concerns, residents and visitors will have the option to skip the meter and pay for parking via mobile app
ParkMobile, the #1 parking app in the U.S., announced a new partnership with the Village of Dobbs Ferry, New York, to allow residents and visitors to pay for parking on their mobile devices. The ParkMobile app will be available at more than 400 on-street parking spaces and in off-street lots throughout the Village. With the recent COVID-19 crisis, many community leaders are encouraging residents and visitors to use the app instead of the meter or pay station to prevent the spread of the virus.
The ParkMobile app is the #1 parking app in the U.S., with over 22 million users, and is available for both iPhone and Android devices. ParkMobile can also be accessed on a mobile web browser for those who do not want to download an app. To pay for parking using the mobile or web app, a user enters the zone number posted on signs around the parking spot, selects the amount of time needed, and touches the “Start Parking” button to begin the session. The user can also extend the time of the parking session on their mobile device.
ParkMobile has a large presence in New York and across the Tri-State Area, with almost 4 million users in the region. In New York State, the app is available in the Village of Nyack, Lake George, Buffalo, Rochester, Ithaca, White Plains, Syracuse, New York City, and more. Beyond the state, the app can be used to pay for parking in over 450 cities across the U.S. and is widely available along the Northeast corridor from Washington, DC., to Philadelphia, to Newark.
“The Village of Dobbs Ferry is thrilled to offer a contactless option for parking payments,” says Mayor Vincent Rossillo. “By partnering with ParkMobile, we are providing a smarter and safer way for our residents, personnel, and visitors to pay for parking.”
“We are happy to welcome the Village of Dobbs Ferry to the ParkMobile network,” says Jon Ziglar, CEO of ParkMobile. “We are available all over New York State, making it quick and easy to pay for parking wherever you go.”
