Park & Ride at Ampang and Gombak LRT now using licence plate readers – pay parking with Pay & Go app

Rapid KL has announced that beginning April 1, 2023, the Park & Ride facilities at the Ampang and Gombak LRT stations will use an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system.

This is similar to Sunway Smart Parking or Kiple Park whereby users are not required to take a parking ticket and can pay for parking using their mobile phones.

In the case of Park & Ride at said LRT stations, users will need to download the Pay & Go app (available for iOS and Android devices). Available cashless payment options include e-wallets like Touch ‘n Go, Grab Pay and Boost; FPX banking; Pay & Go credits; or credit/debit card.

According to Rapid KL, there are 1,260 parking bays at the Gombak Park & Ride, while the Ampang facility offers 1,140 parking bays.

    What about the charges. Typically, those who park n ride will get flat fee of RM4.30/day. Provided you use the same TouchnGo card for the parking and LRT/MRT ride to destination and back. With the number plate recognition and eWallet payment, how does the parking know which is which? The car park system still not yet upgraded to accept eWallet/Credit card payments.

    Tried the system today. Memang charge flat fee of RM 4.30. Downloaded the app and used their Auto Parking Collection feature. Just drive in and drive out and the amount gets auto deducted. Very convenient
