Majid Al Futtaim, a leading shopping mall in Bahrain, has introduced an advanced vehicle parking system at the City Centre Bahrain, making it easier for the visitors to find parking spaces and locate the vehicle after a visit to the mall.

The first of its kind in Bahrain, the new LED lighting system enables arriving guests to identify available parking spaces. Located on the ceiling of the car parking lanes, a green light indicates an available parking space; a blue light indicates a space for the disabled only and a red light means the space is occupied.

Additionally, the new car park guidance system kiosks, located at mall gates, will enable shoppers to find their vehicles easily after shopping, dining, or a cinema visit. Visitors can enter their car’s plate number on the touchscreen kiosks; click ‘Find’ to identify where their vehicle is.

“Customer feedback has demonstrated that the parking experience has a direct influence on the overall quality of a shopping mall trip. City Centre Bahrain is piloting new technologies which will significantly improve the convenience and accessibility of our malls; creating great moments, for everyone, everyday,” said Duaij Khalifa Al Rumaihi, Senior Mall Manager for City Centre Bahrain.

Drivers could immediately notice the new system in place when arriving at City Centre Bahrain, as visible lights will enable them to identify the available parking spaces from a distance. The innovative technology behind the new car park guidance system tracks every vehicle by license plate, enabling shoppers to be guided back to their parking spaces from a designated kiosk.
