To provide residents and visitors to the City with an efficient, user-friendly parking experience, the City chose Amano McGann’s OPUSeries line of PARCS.

The project, currently in the initial phases of deployment at the new University Center development, features entry, exit, and strategically placed pay-on-foot stations for select public and private parking structures. Amano McGann’s OPUSeries will provide enhanced customer service through the integration of Parker Video Intercoms and eParcSuite, Amano McGann’s proprietary web-based validation solution. The project also features Amano McGann’s on-street parking system, Sprite powered by Metric, to streamline the City of Rock Hill’s municipal on-street program. More parking structures will be added to the project over time to ensure the City of Rock Hill’s parking patronage has adequate options.
