IPP Gains New Members – December 2009

All employees of MET Parking Services have been enrolled as members of the IPP (Institute of Parking Professionals) as part of a trial membership scheme designed to raise awareness of both the British Parking Association and the IPP for those working in the industry. During this six month trial, members will receive regular ezine updates, a copy of the newsletter, full access to the website and access to the IPP LinedIn group.

The IPP was formed by the British Parking Association for the purpose of encouraging education and training, thus promoting high standards of skill and integrity among the professionals engaged in the parking industry. Through the IPP website, members have the opportunity to network with online communities and have access to the IPP Knowledge Hub, which is a library of useful resources, presentations and links to partner organisations. MET is proud to be a part of this initiative, whose ultimate purpose is to help raise the standards in our industry.

MET Introduces Designer Signage - November 2009

One of the challenges in running an effective car park is clearly communicating the Terms
and Conditions of Use of the car park to its patrons. With this in mind, MET took the
radical approach of enlisting the talents of a local design firm to redesign all of MET’s
signage. Through the use of colour, contrast and varied type, the designers have created
an eye catching new design that better communicates the rules governing the use of a
private car park. MET firmly believes in the value of clear and accurate communication as
it is clear that parking patrons who understand the rules are much more likely to abide by
them.

New MET Website Goes Online - October 2009

In the first week of October, MET proudly launched their new corporate website at
www.metparking.com. The website has been completely redesigned for easier navigation,
making it much faster to find the information you need. The Online Payment
System has also been streamlined and made easier to use, and there are new tools in the
Secure Client Area that make it possible for clients to manage their car parks from their
computer. Speak to your relationship manager for more information.
