Hongqiao airport parking garage reopens

A POPULAR parking garage at the Hongqiao airport reopened yesterday after a major renovation for the second China International Import Expo.

The P7 parking garage at the T2 terminal of Hongqiao International Airport is located near the National Exhibition and Convention Center, where the expo will be held from November 5 to 10.

The garage, featuring a car plate recognition system that allows drivers to pay without having to stop at a booth, has finished its biggest renovation since opening in 2010.

The airport authority suspended the garage’s second story in June and launched the renovation project to better serve visitors to the CIIE.

Some 9,200 square meters of pavement have been restored, while over 50 signs have been added. Vertical greenery, leisure seats and glass fences have been newly installed too. The new lighting system makes toilets and meeting points at the garage more noticeable, the airport authority said.

With the intelligent payment system, a car can exit in two seconds from the P7 garage, compared with 10 seconds when using a manned booth.

The airport is developing another system to help drivers find their parked cars.
