Niagara College has partnered with mobile parking app Honk Mobile, to offer convenient, cashless parking, rolling out in phases at both the Welland and Niagara-on-the-Lake Campuses.
Later this Fall, daily and weekly paid parking via Honk Mobile will be available at the Welland Campus. Parking pay stations will be replaced with mobile meters. Those with Internet connected devices (or who connect to campus wifi) will be able to pay by downloading the app and/or tapping their phones at a “mobile” meter located throughout parking lots (which will replace the parking pay stations).
Students, staff and guests without a mobile device will be able to pay for daily or weekly paid parking at the Campus Bookstore and Honk Mobile tablet kiosk on-campus. Permit parking for the 2019-2020 year will continue to be available for purchase by following the permit parking instructions on the Parking Services website.
The app is expected to launch at the Niagara-on-the-Lake Campus in summer 2020. When fully implemented, staff and students will be able to purchase permit parking for any length of time using Honk – meaning those who do will no longer require a physical parking pass.
Watch for more information from Campus Safety and Parking Services about the move to Honk Mobile in the coming weeks.
