OTRA Solutions, the leader in guaranteed and seamless access for secure truck parking throughout Europe, proudly announces a strategic system integration with GEA PARK, a top-tier force in the European parking management & tolling arena, with a leading success in France. This alliance is set to transform the daily operations and services for parking owners utilising GEA PARK systems and European transport companies looking to reserve spots in GEA PARK-run truck parking facilities across Europe, notably in France.

Automated Parking Management

The collaboration between OTRA and GEA PARK introduces a transformative approach to parking management. Parking operators using OTRA and GEA PARK can now offer automated booking management features. These include real-time space availability and frictionless access to OTRA’s extensive network of over 24,000 carrier plates. Integration within the GEA PARK interfaces means that booking requests, arrivals and departures are processed automatically, including gate operations and payment transactions managed effortlessly by OTRA. This strategic development significantly simplifies the complexities of access and payment management, prevents overbooking, and maximises the efficient use of parking resources.
