Education
We work closely with over 170 education sites throughout the UK, helping to transform their parking to not only improve safety and accessibility but also greatly improve the staff and student experience. We’ve worked with major universities including Warwick University, Leeds Beckett University and Manchester Metropolitan University as well as a number of schools and colleges across the country.

University, college and school car park management
Many educational sites rely on their own internal teams to manage security and parking. This can be a time-consuming task and especially difficult on larger multi-campus sites with multiple places to park. The size of some educational facilities makes them difficult to police and presents a number of issues, including:
- Over-subscribed car parks during term time
- Expensive or out-of-date barrier systems
- Unauthorised parking on site
- An increased number of student and staff parking permits
- Complexity managing lots of different user types – from students and staff to visitors and suppliers
- Demand for protected spaces
- Access to EV charging
We’re all too aware that when it comes to the educational sector, car park management is often at the bottom of the to-do list due to limited resources and funds. However, Parkingeye’s know-how helps to minimise stress so our clients can focus on other issues.
Introducing ParkEV New
ParkEV is our way of supporting the necessary changes to EV infrastructure in the UK. Our solution uses Evology chargers, combined with specialist enforcement technology, that will transform the landscape of EV parking in the UK. With various charging options available we help the businesses we work with to adapt to ever-changing customer requirements, establish their EV offering, and protect their bays.

Testimonial
-
Our college is located in St Helens town centre where parking is limited and expensive. Prior to Parkingeye installing the new system, our staff struggled to park on site because the car parks were constantly full of unauthorised users. The Parkingeye team worked closely with us to understand our aims and requirements for our car park and provided us with all the tools we need to manage different types of permits and visitors on site, as well as installing and maintaining all of the equipment free of charge.
