Anyone who’s used to daily car commutes has at one point or another met the challenges of finding an available parking space after arriving at a car lot. And besides being time consuming and frustrating, the last mile of the commute especially contributes to greenhouse gas emissions.
To tackle all of these challenges and to achieve a greener commute for all, Wayleadr and MapsPeople have entered a strategic partnership with the aim of optimizing drivers’ daily journey. The combined solutions can save up to 8 minutes per journey, for every commuter!
Wayleadr’s trusted technology instantly increases parking availability by up to 40% and digitizes all aspects of a parking lot. This, combined with MapsPeople’s dynamic mapping platform, MapsIndoors, takes the guesswork out of the last mile of the commuter conundrum. Drivers can reserve an available car spot ahead of their journey and they are navigated directly to that space when they arrive at the building.
These combined solutions save time, eliminates frustrations and greatly reduces the greenhouse gases caused by people searching for a car spot when they arrive. These benefits are especially important as employees return to the office on a part-time, at-will or full time basis and ensuring employee happiness is essential for employers.
“At Wayleadr, we firmly believe that employees need a new way to get to work and the planet needs a new way to move forward. Hybrid work today has given digital workplace leaders a glimpse into the future of work tomorrow and last mile automation plays a key role in this transformation. Partnering with MapsPeople allows us to truly optimize the last mile of commuters’ journeys. Our combined solution delivers dynamic mapping and real time space allocation, allowing users to navigate easily to their destination, helping to reduce their carbon footprint and saving them time”
Val Cassidy, Head of Partnerships & Integrations at Wayleadr.
Mapspeople’s technology, integrated with the Wayleadr platform, assigns drivers a parking space based on the estimated time of arrival and space availability. It then provides directions to the allocated reserved spot, using custom maps of the car lot. Wayleadr also enables users to gain access to parking lots by feeding information to barrier systems. This ensures that only authorized people with bookings can access the parking lot.
Sustainability is key to the future of urban planning and optimization for drivers’ commutes. With the joint solutions, the greener choice becomes easy, with reduced time spent searching for parking spots and the option to offer guaranteed charging stations for commuters with e-vehicles.
“With this partnership, MapsPeople is entering the industry of parking management, and we are excited to join Wayleadr in committing to a more sustainable last mile commuter journey,”
Nicola McRae-Bøgeskov, Partner Marketing Manager at MapsPeople.
