HDB recently unveiled a new smart carpark<\/a> without barrier in Northshore Residence in Punggol. I had the chance to visit it yesterday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The carpark is big. There are a total of 1,000 lots and each lot has a light above it. Green means free to park, Orange means Season Parking and no light means occupied. These lights are flexible and based on data, it will switch to different colors accordingly. Yesterday, when I visited it, all are in green color.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It does not look any different from the usual carpark except that it is barrier-free when you are coming in or going out of the carpark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Instead, it has cameras to capture your car plate when you enter the carpark. There is also an app, Parking@HDB, that you can download and key in your credit card as it will deduct the parking fee from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not interested in the app? You can continue to use the IU (In-Vehicle Unit) to pay for each entry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
