If you’ve noticed, the city has implemented an optional card system for paying for meters as of last year or so.
Now, the city is planning to implement a smart chip that will allow drivers to feed their meter wirelessly using a computer or a cellphone you don’t have to run so much.
Awesome stuff but is it going to cost more of my tax money?
I personally don’t really care for all that wifi junk, I’d rather people run to their meters.
Luckily for San Francisco residents, the city is stepping in to try and help them avoid the parking crunch. As part of a $95.5 million program called SFPark, 6,000 of San Francisco’s 24,000 metered parking spaces are being outfitted with sensors that will allow drivers to spot open parking spaces by checking maps on their cell phones or by looking at displays on street signs.
