AHEC Parking Department Removing All Physical Parking Meters, Metered Spaces to Be Paid Via ParkMobile
Posted June 12th, 2024
In a major convenience and accessibility move, the Auraria Higher Education Center (AHEC) Department of Parking and Transportation will be removing all 316 physical parking meters and will instead require payment for metered spaces be paid via ParkMobile.
The removal of the physical meters will begin as early as the first week of June. Once removed, all customers will need to pay for metered parking spaces via ParkMobile. ParkMobile offers three easy and convenient ways to pay for metered spaces, which are the same as any of the other AHEC parking lots and garages.
Customers can either pay via the free ParkMobile App by entering the zone number and payment information, by visiting ParkMobile.io or by scanning the QR code on the metered signage, or by texting “Park” to 77223. Customers without a smartphone can call 877-727-5951 for payment.
This move to ParkMobile only metered parking represents a major upgrade in accessibility and convenience for all customers. With ParkMobile parking, those using metered spaces no longer need to monitor the physical meters, as they can track and add time to their meter via their mobile device. All metered spaces will always be available since meters will no longer need to be under repair.
It also represents an accessibility upgrade, as customers have the comfortability of managing parking on their mobile device, and don’t need to deal with needing to reach a physical meter, view prompts on the meter, or deal with faulty or frozen equipment.
Questions regarding the switch to ParkMobile can be directed to the AHEC Parking and Transportation office by calling 303-556-2003 or emailing ahec_parking@ahec.edu.
