City of Kalgoorlie
Revolutionising Parking Enforcement in
Kalgoorlie-Boulder with Cutting-Edge Technology
In the vibrant regional hub of Kalgoorlie-Boulder, Western Australia, the local ranger service is transforming how it manages parking enforcement.
Known for its rich history and bustling community, the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder faced the challenge of modernising its ranger operations to improve efficiency, accuracy, and safety.
By embracing advanced technology from Aero Ranger, the ranger service has streamlined its processes and enhanced its ability to serve the community effectively.
Background:
Kalgoorlie-Boulder is a vital regional hub within Western Australia, offering a mix of urban and rural challenges for its ranger services. The City’s rangers are tasked with diverse duties, including parking enforcement, where traditional methods require physically marking tyres and manually processing infringements. These processes were labour-intensive, time-consuming, and prone to human error.
Challenge:
The ranger service faced inefficiencies and delays in managing parking enforcement due to outdated manual processes. Marking tires and recording data required significant time and effort, limiting the team’s ability to address other community needs. Double-handling of data further increased administrative burdens and the potential for errors.
Solution:
The City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder adopted Aero Ranger’s advanced technology to automate and streamline parking enforcement operations. The system leverages vehicle-mounted cameras and electronic processing to eliminate manual tasks and optimize workflows.
Key Features of the Technology:
• Automated Vehicle Identification: Cameras mounted on ranger vehicles capture vehicle data in real time, identifying overstayed vehicles effortlessly.
• Electronic Infringement Processing: Parking fines are issued electronically, reducing errors and eliminating the need for multiple data entries.
• Seamless Integration: Data flows directly into the City’s database, removing the need for manual re-entry and improving overall efficiency.
Results and Impact:
The implementation of Aero Ranger technology has revolutionised the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder’s approach to parking enforcement, achieving:
• Time Savings: Tasks that previously took hours, such as marking tyres along streets, now take minutes with automated vehicle detection.
• Increased Accuracy: Electronic infringement notices eliminate handwriting errors, ensuring clear and precise communication.
• Improved Efficiency: Streamlined workflows allow rangers to focus on broader community services, enhancing overall productivity.
• Enhanced Safety: The system reduces the physical demands on rangers, allowing them to perform their duties more effectively and securely.
Testimonial:
Cameron Till, a Community Ranger, highlighted the transformative impact of Aero Ranger technology:
“Instead of spending two hours walking down the street marking tyres, we now drive down in just five minutes. It’s more efficient and safer for us. The system ensures we’re not double-handling information and integrates directly into our database, saving time and reducing errors. Aero Ranger has made our lives and operations much more effective.”
