Smarter Parking at Porto Bus Terminal: License Plate Recognition in Action

Parking at Porto’s main bus terminal just got faster, safer, and smarter, thanks to the installation of SmartLPR® (license plate recognition) cameras at all vehicle access points.

Streamlined Parking Operations

The new LPR system automatically reads vehicle license plates on entry and exit, eliminating manual checks and cutting down waiting times. Drivers now experience quicker, smoother access to the parking facilities, with reduced queues and less congestion during peak times.

Improved Parking Security

Beyond convenience, the system enhances security by automatically detecting and recording every vehicle. Unauthorised or suspicious vehicles are immediately flagged, helping to maintain a safe environment for all users.

Intelligent Parking Management

The LPR cameras are integrated with advanced parking management software. This system tracks vehicle flow, records parking duration, detects counterfeit plates, and compiles detailed reports. Operators gain valuable insights to optimise space usage, adjust staffing needs, and plan for future capacity — all backed by real-time data.

By implementing SmartLPR® Porto bus terminal has elevated its parking operations — delivering a better experience for drivers while making parking management smarter and more efficient.
