SFPark WiFi System
Posted on Jul 13, 08 08:58 PM PDT
Parking in a city like San Francisco is a definite problem, and the city council aims to alleviate the situation by investing $23 million in a program known as SFPark. SFPark's aim is to convert 6,000 of San Francisco's 24,000 metered parking spaces into "smart" spots, capable of informing drivers of available spaces over a city-wide WiFi network. Sounds pretty ambitious, but at least you don't have to gamble against getting a ticket whenever you park haphazardly while running a quick errand downtown. Sounds like a great idea, since these empty parking spots will show up on your cell phone. Hopefully an officer won't catch you doing so while driving, so make sure you get some sort of cell phone holder in your car.
