What is Parksmart?

Parksmart is the sustainability certification for parking facilities. Parksmart certification recognizes parking facilities that:

• Reduce their environmental impact
• Increase their energy efficiency and performance
• Manage parking spaces efficiently
• Encourage alternative mobility options
• Strengthen community relationships

Certification is open to new and existing structured parking of all types, including commercial, university, municipal, hospital, retail, and hospitality. Facilities can be stand-alone, or part of a mixed-use building. Parksmart offers certification levels based on the number of points achieved. The certification program incorporates measurements across four categories: Management, Programs, Technology and Structure Design, and Innovation.
