Parking management at Frankfurt Airport: efficient and dynamic

 

Fraport AG once again relies on intelligent guidance systems from MSR-Traffic, Lower Bavaria, for sustainable parking management.

 

LED matrix displays and the new ParkGard®Control Center from MSR-Traffic GmbH guarantee dynamic parking management in the entrance area of the parking garages in front of  Terminal 1.

Parking guidance systems are of vital importance to sustainable and climate-neutral mobility. They update drivers in real time on free parking space capacity and help them navigate to the next open parking space as quickly as possibly. Not only does this cut down on unnecessary driving, it also reduces harmful emissions.

Fraport AG is one of the leading international airport operators and is active at around 30 airports on four continents. Frankfurt Airport is one of the leading airports in Europe and a major international
international air traffic hub. In 2023, Fraport welcomed around 59.4 million passengers at its home base around 59.4 million passengers and handled a cargo volume of around 1.9 million tonnes.

 

Efficient parking management and climate neutrality. 

The area of car park management & mobility in Frankfurt is the responsibility of Fraport AG. As part of modern mobility management, for example, it creates the infrastructural conditions for even more efficient parking processes. This includes minimising the time spent looking for parking spaces through the use of intelligent guidance systems and LED technology.

 

The latest project – the installation of LED-Matrix displays in the entrance area of the parking garages in Frankfurt Airport’s Terminal 1.

Because the traffic and parking situations in the terminal's entrance area can change at any time, Fraport now has the ability to update the displays to reflect traffic needs in real time via control software, with the help of the LED matrix displays and the new ParkGard®Control Center (PGCC). This promotes dynamic traffic guidance and efficient parking management.

 

LED-Matrix displays.

The dynamic  LED-Matrix  displays  have a flat and modern design. Numbers, arrows and symbols can also be configured individually. All displays can be combined with conventional traffic signs and can also be equipped with optional wireless communication technology from MSR-Traffic.

 

A variety of different application possibilities make the LED-Matrix system highly versatile. For example:

  • Display the occupancy status at the entrance and each aisle
  • Display event-based information, e.g. charging stations for electric cars, disability parking spaces
  • Changing display for number of parking spaces
  • Display special events, e.g. parking spaces for women or for people with children
  • Weather display

 

Advantages.

  • Individual configuration of numbers, arrows and symbols
  • Flat and modern design, customisable modular concept
  • Good visibility with non-reflective displays
  • Dynamic searching for parking spaces, data transmission in real time
