The Des Moines International Airport Authority Board has approved a new system that will tell drivers, in real time, how many parking spots are available on each level of the parking ramp.
The system also will have lights on each stall — red when it is occupied and green when it’s not. Baker Group won the contract to use the Indect system in a $140,000 proof of concept in the hourly and premium parking areas in the north garage. If it works well, the system will be installed across the whole ramp system, at a cost of $678,000.
