Argentinian Municipality of Rosario Adopts Urbiotica's IoT Solutions

Rosario is the largest city in the province of Santa Fe and the third most populous city in the country.

As is common in most huge overpopulated cities, citizens are faced with day-to-day annoying and endless traffic jams. In this specific case at Rosario’s city center, public parking spaces are a scarcity with bottlenecks being caused by vehicles searching for a free spot to park.

Tránsito Rosario, as the city concession parking holder, aimed to add IoT solutions to improve the service for the citizens. Our local partner Gradicom deployed our smart parking guidance solution for Tránsito Rosario, through which cars are guided directly to the free spots. Consequently, this reduced the number of vehicles driving around and therefore improved mobility and citizen quality of life.

The project began with a pilot covering 10 parking spaces. After verifying the functioning of the system as well as its good results during this period, we are about to implement the second phase which will embrace 1000 sensorized parking spots.

Details of the system installed:

• 1000 single space U-Spot detection sensors
• User guidance mobile application
• The U-Admin Parking Control Center for daily management of the system
