Have you ever heard someone bemoan the challenges of parking downtown? Good news! Now you can be the one to tell them about using the ParkMobile App in Downtown Auburn, which is one way parking has become more convenient for downtown visitors.
What the App?!
The ParkMobile App in Downtown Auburn lets you pay for parking from your mobile device. It’s contactless and doesn’t require cash. Plus, downloading the app is free and easy from the App Store or Google Play!
If you don’t want another app on your device, you can access ParkMobile through a web browser as well. So, you can still quickly find it using your phone.
The City of Auburn decided to partner with ParkMobile to make paying for all surface parking downtown simple. But there is one exception. The newly-constructed Wright Street Parking deck is still kiosk-only.
Guests can pay for parking at the exit gate kiosk or the nearby walk-up kiosk when they park in the new deck. Of course, all of the downtown parking kiosks are still in place and ready for use for those who prefer it.
And for those who love the convenience of online payments, using the ParkMobile App in Downtown Auburn gives you just that!
How to Use the App
There are a few steps to follow after you find your parking spot downtown. First, drivers must download the app or access ParkMobile on a web browser. Then, enter the zone number posted on signs near your parking spot. Next, enter your spot number and how long you plan to stay there. Press “Start,” and off you go.
It might be a good time to note ParkMobile does have a small $0.35 app fee for using it when parking, but so far, there are no complaints!
