‘Bowled Over’ in Southend-On-Sea
MFA Bowl Ltd appointed HX Car Park Management (HX) to deliver effective car parking solutions at its facility in Southend-On-Sea. This family-centred ‘Ten Pin’ bowling alley, super cue pool centre and video game and amusement arcade is an extremely popular destination with the local community, and with corporates for events, hence offering ample parking to visitors is a priority.
Originally designated as free parking, the car park was being used by numerous tourist visitors as well as others not using the centre, thus restricting the parking available to legitimate customers.
parking charge, and miss reads are updated by office staff. ANPR sends data to management in real time.
Any final words?
Many see ANPR parking control purely as a a revenue generating exercise. We check every PCN for errors as well as mitigating circumstances why a motorist may have breached the terms and conditions. To date HX Car Park Management has voided over 39,000 PCNs due to human error, with a value of approximately £2m. ANPR parking control delivers tangible results to landlords, ensuring legitimate visitors can park, parking privileges are not abused, and damage and vandalism is dramatically reduced.”

HX were consulted and instructed to design a scheme that would be fair and would better control the traffic and visitors to the site. The solution was to install a full ANPR controlled Pay & Display system that operated on a multi-level tariff. This would suit all visitors, from those parking for short periods of time, to visitors wanting to park all day. MFA Bowl Ltd now earns revenue from its asset which is monitored 24 hours a day.
Kenny commented: “Working closely with the onsite management and all the tenants of the scheme, if legitimate customers received a Parking Charge Notice (PCN) and had a genuine reason not to receive that PCN, we help them by rescinding the charge, thus protecting the tenant’s business brand.”
