Clearview Traffic Group Parking Vision
The 707 Clearview Traffic Group is entering the smart parking market with a range of solutions designed to maximise the effective use of existing parking capacity.

Talking about the move, Nick Lanigan, the company’s managing director, said, “Hunting for an available parking space these days is a growing source of driver frustration, as well as a major contributor to congestion and environmental pollution in many major towns and cities across the UK.

Because of this adverse impact on the economy, the opportunity to provide smarter solutions to the parking market was identified early on in our work with Dr Stephen Ladyman as a core strand to our vision of keeping traffic moving both now and in our cities of the future.”

The M300 is the first product to enter this market from the Golden River stable, with further products planned for later this year for on and off-street parking at locations including retail and lorry parks, motorway service areas, multi-storey car parks, and taxi ranks and loading bays.
