Web Site Offers City Parking Solution

Parking in a major metropolitan can be worse than a root canal: Endless circling in a one-square block area for what can seem like hours.

California-based ParkingCarma has created a solution to the parking dilemma. The company – which utilizes Kettering students for its site – offers a Web site where you can research parking areas in 70 U.S. cities.

ParkingCarma installs sensors at the parking garage to maintain an accurate number of vehicles in the lot and how many spaces are available. Users can use the internet, phone or wireless device to find and reserve a space. The company hopes to one day be utilized via in-car navigational systems.

Check out the Web site for more details.
