Shangluo’s first smart, multi‑level parking facility has been put into operation, offering 316 parking spaces.


On August 30, Shangluo’s first multi‑level parking facility, the “Renmin Road Parking Lot,” officially opened for operation. With a capacity of 316 parking spaces, the facility is expected to effectively alleviate traffic and parking difficulties in the surrounding area once it is fully operational. On the morning of September 3, a reporter from Huashang Daily visited the newly opened Renmin Road Parking Lot. Vehicles were steadily entering the premises. The multi‑level structure comprises two parking towers spanning 11 floors, offering 280 parking spaces, along with an additional 36 surface parking spots. At the entrance to the first level of each tower, an intelligent recognition system is installed: drivers simply drive their vehicles onto the designated platform and press the “enter” button to complete parking. To retrieve their cars, owners input their license plate number and press the corresponding retrieval button; the entire process takes no more than two minutes. “Originally, the residential community housing the former Shangluo Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, together with its surrounding areas, was home to 807 households and over 400 vehicles, leading to severe traffic congestion and acute parking shortages,” explained a staff member from Shangluo City Transportation Investment Company on September 3. As private car ownership continues to grow in the region, these challenges have not only disrupted daily life but also posed significant obstacles to emergency response efforts such as firefighting and rescue operations. To address this issue, the Shangluo Municipal Government decided to construct the Renmin Road Parking Lot. According to reports, the Renmin Road Parking Lot in downtown Shangluo is being invested in, built, and operated by Shangluo City Transportation Investment Company. It is the city’s first multi‑level parking facility, covering an area of 3.32 mu. The project features an above‑ground, 11‑story vertical lift‑and‑horizontal‑move parking system, providing 280 stacked parking spaces and 36 surface spaces. With a total floor area of 4,608.61 square meters, the project has received a total investment of approximately RMB 22 million. Construction officially commenced at the end of July 2017, and the steel structure was topped out within just one month. By December of that year, the garage had entered the commissioning phase. This year, during the Spring Festival, the parking lot was opened free of charge to local residents, marking the start of its trial operation. Following nearly six months of testing and fine-tuning, the facility now fully meets all requirements for formal operation. Operating around the clock, the parking lot employs an intelligent identification system throughout the vehicle storage and retrieval process, ensuring completion in under two minutes. Pricing currently follows standard on‑street rates: small vehicles are charged RMB 3 per hour for up to 15 minutes (free), followed by RMB 2 per hour thereafter, with a daily cap of RMB 20. Payment options include cash, WeChat Pay, Alipay, and other convenient methods.

Parking Updates | Quanzhou has put 30 public parking lots into operation this year.


Recently, data from the Quanzhou Municipal Housing and Urban–Rural Development Bureau show that in 2020, Quanzhou earnestly implemented measures to address infrastructure shortcomings in both urban and rural areas, launching 38 public parking facility projects with a planned annual investment of 223 million yuan. By mid-November, cumulative investment had reached 229 million yuan. Thirty public parking lots—including Puxi Park at Quanzhou North Riverside Park, Maritime Silk Road Park, Shishi Flower Sea Valley, Jinjiang Second Sports Center, and Dehua Tangzhai Mountain Park—have been completed and put into operation, adding a total of 6,009 parking spaces. It is reported that since the beginning of this year, several parks in Quanzhou—including the Maritime Silk Road Park in the Taiwan Business Investment Zone, Shishi Flower Sea Valley Park, Fenglu Mountain Park, and Tangzhai Mountain Park in Dehua County—have added eco-friendly parking facilities, creating an additional 1,656 parking spaces. “In conjunction with the development of ecological green corridors, these initiatives aim to alleviate parking difficulties faced by residents and tourists during spring outings and leisure activities,” said a responsible official from the Municipal Housing and Urban–Rural Development Bureau. The challenge of finding parking at hospitals is a common frustration for many citizens who have visited them. In response to this pressing public concern, since the start of the year, Quanzhou First Hospital’s Chengdong Branch Phase II Ward Building, Quanzhou Infectious Disease Hospital, Guangqian Hospital, and other medical facilities have also introduced multiple new parking projects, adding over 1,000 parking spaces. Additionally, Nan’an has expanded its ground-level public parking lot at the Administrative Service Center by 101 parking spaces, while simultaneously installing photovoltaic carports and charging stations, providing greater convenience for those visiting government offices. Meanwhile, Dehui Plaza in Shishi City has built a self-driving multi-story parking garage on its own vacant land, adding 615 parking spaces and helping ease parking pressure in Shishi’s central urban area. Hui’an County has introduced a smart parking management system, applying information-based, intelligent, and user-friendly solutions to more than 1,000 on-street parking spaces across the urban area. These measures have effectively increased parking space turnover rates and significantly improved residents’ commuting experience. Source: Quanzhou Net
