Oslo municipality has decided that a permanent scheme for resident parking shall be implemented. The Contracting Authority shall procure an Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) control tool. The objective of the procurement is to establish a control tool system to control parking. The system shall be assembled in the Agency's vehicle(s) and it shall check whether a vehicle is wrongly parked and whether a parking fee has been paid.
When the permanent scheme for resident parking in Oslo is implemented, the existing free parking lots in city districts that have implemented the scheme will be subject to charges. Persons who are granted resident parking permits can then use these charged parking places without further payment, whilst persons without a valid resident parking permit must pay a parking charge to use these parking places.
Approx. 20 000 parking lots are included in the scheme which is approved by 8 city districts.
A new control system has been procured for controlling the large amount of dutiable parking places. The system comprises vehicles with scanning equipment for number plates and for verifying if the vehicle is legally parked, the parking fee is paid, has resident parking permission and is parked on a legal lot Any deviation thereof shall be registered as assignments for the Districts' parking wardens who enforce in accordance with manual routines.
