The City of Evanston announces the update of its mobile payment application for parking, ParkEvanston. The app, first launched in the fall of 2017, now includes an update with a more modern user interface allowing for smoother navigation, and improved transparency for changes in parking rates and rules. Drivers can use their smartphones to extend their parking sessions remotely using the convenient sliding scale feature, and the new “quick park” feature saves users’ most recently used parking locations so that paying to park is easier than ever before.
“We are thrilled to roll out this update to our community,” said Lukasz Tatara, City of Evanston Interim Parking Manager. “The new features enhance the overall parking experience, making it easier for residents and visitors to move about the community, supporting our vision of creating the most livable city in America.”

“The ParkEvanston app has provided locals and tourists with contactless parking payment options for more than four years,” said Anne Smith, Passport client success manager. “We are excited to continue this partnership with the City of Evanston and to provide its community with more seamless ways to pay for parking.”
Cities, universities and private operators across North America trust Passport’s platform as the only end-to-end system for managing mobile pay parking, parking enforcement, digital parking permits and mobility management. More than 800 cities trust Passport’s technology to power their operations and make more data-driven decisions at curb, including the City of Chicago.
