The challenge

Reconciling new mobility needs with private car parks under pressure

Urbanisation is advancing, vehicle numbers are soaring, and users — highly connected and environmentally conscious — are embracing intermodal travel. Car parks must reinvent themselves: no longer simply places to park, but true mobility hub that streamlines urban traffic, secures access and becomes a key business asset.

With Hesion Access, Hesion enhances the value of your property: optimised occupancy, appropriate pricing and precise access rights management. Better use, smoother traffic, greater value for your car park.

How it works

Just one second, from sensor to access authorisation

No badge to present, no ticket to take. The licence plate does it all.

The plate is read

A camera at the access point recognises every character on the plate, with over 98 % reliability — whatever the plate type.

Access rights are checked

The vehicle is identified and matched to its user profile: subscriber, visitor, private hire vehicle, rental vehicle… Access rules are applied automatically.

Guidance takes over

The barrier lifts, and dynamic guidance directs drivers to an available zone — with a specific space reserved if needed. Less traffic, less pollution.

The advantages of Hesion Access

Flexible, scalable and built to last

All plate types

Recognition of all licence plate types, with ongoing regulatory updates.

Customer experience

A seamless VIP welcome

VIP customers want to feel expected: no ticket, no window to lower, just a barrier that opens as they approach.

See the solution

Solution: when they subscribe or make a booking, their plate is registered in Hesion Access. Benefit: access time reduced by a factor of 5, with a personalised welcome that justifies a premium service.

Vehicle rental

Rental vehicles, hassle-free exits

Rental customers pick up their car in a paid car park… then block the exit or pay out of their own pocket.

See the solution

Solution: daily import of the rental company's fleet plates into a dedicated category. Benefit: seamless exits, no validation vouchers, and vehicle movement reports for billing between partners.

Fairness

An end to short-stay free parking abuse

Leaving before the free period ends, then re-entering straight away: some users never pay, and the expected turnover of spaces never happens.

See the solution

Solution: entry/exit timestamping through licence plate recognition, with visits automatically aggregated over a configurable period. Benefit: truly guaranteed turnover, increased drop-off revenue, fairness for everyone.

Businesses

Protected visitor spaces

Employees « hog » the visitor spaces closest to reception. Your customers drive around in vain.

See the solution

Solution: maximum parking time per day ; any number plate exceeding the limit is automatically added to a grey list and denied access. Benefit: guaranteed availability for your visitors, with no human intervention.

Mobility

Dedicated access for private hire vehicles

Airports and stations were designed for taxis, not private hire vehicles : congested drop-off areas, unauthorised parking, unhappy travellers.

See the solution

Solution: a private hire category with a free allowance or negotiated rate, with the fleet updated through daily imports. Benefit: smooth access for drivers, a hassle-free journey for travellers, an enhanced service offering.

Turnover

Stop long-stay « space hogs » in drop-off areas

Despite progressive pricing, some vehicles remain in short-stay spaces for hours.

See the solution

Solution: entry timestamping, automatic alerts (web, email, SMS) to the operator or towing service when the time limit is exceeded. Benefit: guaranteed turnover, spaces available for your customers, coordinated vehicle removal.

CSR

Reward car sharing

You want to encourage car sharing to reduce CO₂ emissions and parking space occupancy.

See the solution

Solution: a single agreement covers the number plates of 3 to 5 employees, with specific « car sharing » access rights (only one vehicle under the agreement at a time). Benefit: a win-win-win : less CO₂, better use of spaces and meaningful recognition for committed employees.

Consultancy
