Parking Awards
Q-Park wants to promote qualitative improvements in public car parking. And to this end, Q-Park participates in national and international parking award schemes.
The European Parking Award is organised by the European Parking Association (EPA) as a biennial award for excellence in parking. Prizes are awarded in each of the following categories:
Category 1 New parking structures
Category 2 Renovated parking structures
Category 3 Public space on-street parking projects
Category 4 Innovative schemes for off-street parking
Category 5 Marketing & communication
This ‘Oscar of the parking industry’ demonstrates the highest quality in these five categories. The EPA particularly values projects which make a contribution to parking policy, sustainable urban mobility plans and urban development. Q-Park has a strong history in the awards, dating back to 1999 and winning 17 EPA Awards to date.
Four of Q-Park’s projects were shortlisted for the combined 2021/2022 EPA awards. The shortlisted Q-Park projects were in two of the five EPA categories:
Category 2: Renovated car park
Conversion in Chartres, France
A city concept in Toulon, France
Category 4: Innovative project
