Parkeren Plus app in Stichtse Vecht
Stichtse Vecht is launching a collaboration with SHPV, a cooperative of municipalities. Together, they aim to make parking with a disability parking permit easier through an app. The Parkeren Plus app provides residents with disabilities with more parking options.
The Parkeren Plus app is an addition to the existing disability parking permit (GPK). Several municipalities are already participating, and in the future, other municipalities may also join. The advantage of the app is that parking in other municipalities becomes easier.
Registration via license plate
The Parkeren Plus app links your license plate and provides the correct information about parking so you don’t receive a fine. The app also shows in which municipality you are allowed to park with a GPK. The app is managed by the Dutch Vehicle Authority (RDW), as the license plate is linked to the GPK.
Parking in paid parking spaces in other municipalities
Each municipality sets rules for paid parking with a GPK. In the municipality of Stichtse Vecht, there is no paid parking, with the exception of Scheendijk. The physical parking permit remains valid, but only for designated disability parking spaces. To park for free on a regular parking space in a participating municipality, the Parkeren Plus app is therefore necessary.
Digital and accessible to everyone
The use of the app is accessible to everyone. The municipality of Stichtse Vecht assists in applying for the Parkeren Plus app, which is done via DigiD. More information can be found via the Centraal Loket Parkeren Plus.
