The National Parking Platform continued its strong growth trajectory in June, with three more councils choosing a smarter way to manage parking payments. 📈
Motorists in those areas can now use their preferred parking app from the six service providers currently connected to the NPP: @APCOAUK @AppyParking Caura @JustPark @PayByPhone & @RingGo_parking . 📱
The future of parking looks bright: more choice for motorists, greater competition driving innovation & a simpler, more seamless parking experience in an increasing number of locations. 🌟

David Sinclair became Executive Director of the National Parking Platform on 1 June, taking over from Sarah Randall, who had overseen the NPP since its launch as a not-for-profit organisation in May 2025. 👏
Speaking about his new role, David said: “I’ve followed the NPP journey closely and truly believe it has huge potential to transform the parking experience for drivers while creating a stronger and more connected market for the industry.” 💬
Looking ahead, David's focus will be on supporting the NPP's ongoing expansion & helping deliver a more open parking market to towns & cities across the UK. 🤝

One year on and the National Parking Platform has evolved from a pilot project to the backbone of a more connected UK parking system. It’s now processing more than 1m transactions each month, with 19 councils currently onboard & many more expressing interest in joining.🙌
This reflects the growing momentum behind Open Market parking & greater collaboration between local authorities. Co-ordinated launches in areas such as Hertfordshire & Warwickshire have shown how neighbouring councils can work together to make it easier for motorists to park. 🤝

Three more local authorities joined the NPP in May, accelerating the national rollout of a simpler, more flexible way to pay for parking. @Warwick_DC , Stratford-on-Avon District Council & @BassetlawDC are now part of the platform – & @BhamCityCouncil is joining soon. 🚀
A recent article in Parking News highlighted the pace of growth, noting that at the current onboarding rate, at least 50 operators could be live by the end of 2026.🗞️
As more councils sign up, the NPP is continuing to expand access to Open Market parking & helping create a more joined-up, future-ready parking ecosystem. 👏
