WILLEMSTAD – Parking meters in Punda and Otrobanda are experiencing software issues, causing a temporary suspension of parking enforcement in these central Willemstad districts. Until the problem is resolved, vehicles will not be subject to wheel clamps.
The supplier, Flowbird, has been notified and is currently working on a solution. Flowbird, an international company specializing in parking solutions, installed 44 StradaPAL solar-powered parking meters in Willemstad in October 2024. These modern machines offer flexible payment options, including contactless payments, Smart One cards, and the FlowbirdApp E.Wallet.
The current malfunction is affecting the meters' functionality, leading to the temporary suspension of parking enforcement in the affected areas. It is still unclear when the issue will be fully resolved.
