Use RingGo for touch free parking in Maidenhead
Motorists using Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead car parks can park completely touch free by using the UK’s no.1 parking app, RingGo. By paying for parking quickly and easily on your phone, there is no longer any need to handle coins or queue up to use the parking machine. In the wake of the COVID-19 crisis, motorists are understandably wary about having to touch coins or parking machines. So, to keep everyone as safe as possible, the council is recommending the use of RingGo to pay for parking instead.
The fastest and simplest way of using RingGo is by downloading the free app from the App Store or Google Play Store on your smartphone. Just register with a few details and enter the following information to start your parking session:
- Your number plate (with no spaces)
- The 4 or 5-digit location code advertised on signs where you’re parking
Then, just hit the “Start” button in the app to start your parking session. When you’ve finished parking, simply hit the “Stop” button on your session and you’ll be charged for the time you’ve been parked. Be sure to hit the “Stop” button when you’re done parking to avoid being overcharged!
Once you’ve started your parking session, Civil Enforcement Officers can see that you’re parked with RingGo by checking each vehicle registration number on their handheld devices, so there’s no need to display a ticket and you’re actively helping the environment with less paper too.
If you’re not a smartphone user, you can call 0161 634 0340 (shown on signs) to pay for your parking through RingGo. You’ll be able to register and extend your parking touch free using the same details as via the app. If you pre-register online at RingGo.co.uk it makes your call to park much quicker.
You can also choose to add RingGo’s text receipts and reminders, confirming the starting and stopping of your session. There’s a small charge for each of these messages but you can opt-in or out at any time.
