Glen Eira introduces smart parking tech in Carnegie, Bentleigh

Glen Eira City Council has announced the rollout of smart parking technology across Carnegie, Bentleigh and Elsternwick.

The council's 'Exploring Parking Together' initiative will introduce digital parking management systems to improve parking availability and management in these three key commercial precincts. The technology aims to make it easier for visitors and residents to locate available parking spaces.

Carnegie, Bentleigh and Elsternwick are among Glen Eira's busiest retail and commercial centres, with ongoing development activity and high parking demand. The smart parking system will provide real-time data on parking availability and streamline parking enforcement.

For developers, this infrastructure upgrade signals council commitment to supporting commercial activity in these centres. Projects in these areas may benefit from improved parking accessibility, potentially enhancing the viability of retail and mixed-use developments.

The council has not yet released specific implementation timelines or technical details about the smart parking system.
