301 Hillsborough Street Launches Mobile Parking App in Raleigh Location

June 15, 2016-

Raleigh, NC- The Lundy Group, the locally owned and operated full service commercial real estate company, has introduced a mobile payment option for drivers to conveniently pay for parking at 301 Hillsborough Street. 301 Hillsborough Street has launched Passport, North America’s leading mobile payments provider for parking and transit, at their 301 Hillsborough St. location in Raleigh.

With the Passport app, drivers can easily and securely pay for parking with their credit card. Users can begin a parking session, monitor their time, and even extend their stay (up to the maximum allotted time) remotely.

Passport signage in the 301 Hillsborough Street lot will direct users to download the app. It will also designate the zone number for parkers to enter. Once users have started their parking session, enforcement officers will be able to tell that parkers have paid by checking their handheld devices.

“This is a very exciting initiative for our parking operations,” said James Baker, President and Founder of The Lundy Group. “Passport has allowed us to offer a credit card option to our customers without the expenses associated with parking hardware. The Passport team are industry experts — they quickly and efficiently set up the features we needed to make sure this technology is as convenient for our customers as possible.”

Passport is the largest mobile payments provider for parking and transit in North America, and has launched its solution in large cities like Boston, Toronto, Chicago, and Detroit. The Charlotte, NC-based company’s mobile technology is available in multiple locations across North Carolina, including the City of Asheville, Atlantic Beach, North Carolina State University, and Winston Salem State University.

The PassportParking app is free to download from the iPhone App Store and Android Google Play. Users can also manage their parking online at ppprk.com.
