The City of Karratha is making parking easier for visitors with the introduction of ticketless parking at the Karratha Airport
The new license plate recognition parking system will go live on July 3 and will see no physical tickets issued on entry.
Upon arrival at any of the car park entrances, automated machines using cameras will scan the vehicle’s license plate, and the boom gate will open.
Payment can be made via credit card, cash or Apple pay at the pay station by entering license plate details on the touch screen.
Mobile payments are available via the Mobile Ticket app, or by scanning the QR code.
City of Karratha Mayor Peter Long said the new system would reduce queue times and help minimise carpark traffic.
“Our new ticketless system will ease congestion at our airport carpark, and help speed up the process of leaving the airport,” Cr Long said.
“We’re excited to be moving to the ticketless entry, making parking at the airport an easier experience for everyone.”
