Aurecon

Aurecon’s Newmarket office in Auckland houses 250 staff and welcomes dozens of clients and visitors every day. With flexible working arrangements and the need to be on project sites all day, allocated car spaces were being left unused while other employees and visitors struggled to find on street parking.

With 58 onsite parking spaces, Aurecon wanted to make use of the car spaces that were sitting empty during the day and provide a better commute to their Newmarket office for their employees and visitors.

Since launching Parkable, Aurecon has seen some significant improvements in how their car park is used. Staff with allocated parks now share them via the app when they aren’t working in the office, and those shared parks are occupied by their colleagues or visitors 95 percent of the time, demonstrating just how highly valued a park at work is.

Park sharing has also had a huge impact on how widely parking has been distributed: Instead of only a single person using each allocated parking spot, Aurecon has seen those allocated parks being used by four different staff members each month.

Feedback from Aurecon staff has been overwhelmingly positive. Over half of employees say that Parkable has made it easier for them to plan their commute, and 40 percent say that Parkable has helped them to increase their productivity, because they no longer need to move their cars between short-term street parks during the workday.
