Commuting from the Hills District to the City? Here’s How PARKnRIDE Can Help You Beat the Rush! 🚗📱

If you're commuting from the Hills District to the city, you know how tricky it can get finding the right ride and, more importantly, the right parking spot! Whether you’re catching the metro or hopping on one of the many express buses, we’ve got the inside scoop to make your daily grind a whole lot easier. 😉 And the best part? It’s all in our FREE PARKnRIDE app! Let’s break it down for you:

Metro Convenience, But…

The Norwest Metro is an awesome option that takes you directly to the city. But if you’re coming from some parts of the Hills, you know it can be a bit of a hike to get there. And let’s be honest, metro car parks fill up fast—like, super fast. 😫 If you use the metro make sure to check our PARKnRIDE app for real-time occupancy for metro car parks (yes, you read that right! 🚦) and say goodbye to circling around like a hawk for a spot. 🚗

But wait, there’s more! While we don't have real-time occupancy for Torrs St, Barclay Road, North Rocks, or Burns T-Way we’ve collected historical occupancy data and crunched some numbers to give you a pretty good idea of when these spots fill up during weekday peak hours (6:00 AM to 9:30 AM). You’ll never be caught off guard again. ⏰
