Smarter City Solutions virtual parking permit revolution at Mosman Council

Mosman residents will no longer need to stick parking permits on their car windscreens with the arrival of a sophisticated online parking permit system which has seen Mosman become the first local government area to introduce virtual permits in NSW. 

Smarter City Solutions (previously known as CellOPark Australia Pty Ltd) the leading digital parking provider in Australia, has worked with Mosman Council to revolutionise the Residential Parking Scheme (RPS) within the municipality. Using the Smarter City vPermit platform and integrating with the councils internal Civica Authority system as well as an external Document Verification Service (DVS), local residents are able to register and pay for their residential permits online.

“This was a great project and highlighted our agility and ability to deliver on time and well within budget”, says Managing Director of Smarter City Solutions Ori Almog. “By redefining how permits were managed and providing multifaceted online automation has greatly improved the efficiency and customer satisfaction for both the council and the residents.”

How it works:

Applicants simply create an account on the virtual permit system (mosman.vpermit.com.au), upload a photo or scan of their driver’s licence showing their Mosman address and fill in a few details. The system then, using Robotic Process Automation & image recognition, validates eligibility against council systems and provides the option to pay online. Permit holders then have an online account where they can self-manage vehicle and personal details.

Mosman Council General Manager Dominic Johnson said the new online parking permit system is a sophisticated set-up with permit holders now able to securely complete the renewal process entirely online within minutes and instantly update their details, including change of vehicle details, up to four times a year.

“It reduces the need for paperwork, speeds up processing, reduces waiting times for face-to-face appointments at our customer service desks and allows greater flexibility when changing vehicles, although of course, if assistance is required, residents may still come to council to speak with our customer service team,” Mr Johnson said.
