Overview
The restrictions feature, when enabled, prohibits new parking sessions for the selected zone(s)/space(s).
Here are some examples of when you may want to use a restriction:
- If there is active construction in a zone, you can restrict people from starting a parking session
- If you want the zone to be free of charge for a set time, you can restrict people from paying for parking
- If it’s a holiday and you want to give free parking
Note: On new restrictions, you need to hit save once to see the time slots section. This is not reflected in the article.
