QR code Scanners for Daily Parking Use
Starting in the Fall of 2020, new QR code system scanners have been installed in the Science & Technology Park Garage – STPG (42 Wilsey St) and the Summit Street Parking Facility ‐ PARK (154 Summit St). These scanners will read a QR code located on your voucher or handheld device and will open the gate for one entry of parking. This automated method will eliminate the need to interact with officers at the gate. Simply present the pre‐purchased QR code to the scanner for entry.
