Leading Parking App Makes Parking Easy and Affordable
The parking reservation service SpotHero recently launched in Los Angeles, making parking easier and more affordable for Southern California drivers.
SpotHero empowers drivers to find and reserve parking at over 150 locations throughout Los Angeles, including high traffic areas such as LAX, downtown Los Angeles, and Pasadena. The company plans to expand to other locations throughout the city in the near future.
Studies conducted at UCLA indicate that 30 percent of congested downtown traffic is due to drivers looking for parking. With SpotHero, drivers can plan where they will park in advance and avoid idle searching and circling. SpotHero also addresses Los Angeles’s high cost of living for drivers by reducing the cost of parking by as much as 50 percent.
“Given that traffic delays and rising costs continue to be among the top concerns for Los Angeles residents, we hope SpotHero can make driving more enjoyable and affordable,” said Mark Lawrence, co-founder and CEO of SpotHero.
SpotHero offers the most parking options in LA – with over 70 percent more than any competitors. Popular location include:
– LAX: SpotHero has four times the number of parking locations here than competitors.
– Downtown LA: Staples Center, financial district, and Pershing Square.
– Pasadena: Rose Bowl and The Pasadena Playhouse.
SpotHero partners with parking operators who give the company access to their unsold spots. Drivers are then able to find and reserve parking with convenient garages, lots, and valets through SpotHero’s iOS app, Android app, or website.
SpotHero distinguishes itself from other parking offerings by providing access to the largest number of parking locations (70 percent more) and offering a superior customer experience that includes support seven days a week, intuitive design, and integration with “Apple Pay” for a faster checkout process.
