T-minus 6 hours until the strike commences for the London Underground! It is expected to start around 9.00pm tonight – you have been warned!
One of the most advanced transportation networks in the world by which many Londoners strongly rely on to get to and from work, meet their loved ones or take their children to school will suffer from a planned tube strike tonight.
It is expected that thousands of people will be affected which can cause severe delays and confusion for all. You will see astonishing queues at the working stations, and there is no point even taking a bus, unless you enjoy being packed compactly like a sardine in brine!
At ParkJockey we strive to make your life easier, and not (tube) strike to make it harder! We don’t want you to worry one bit if you decide to drive in. Avoid getting caught up in the manic tube race and win the space race – Get 10% discount off your daily parking with ParkJockey using the promo-code: STRIKE10 at the checkout!

The time has finally arrived! After the initial launch of ParkJockey London where the team worked endless hours to get the show on the road, we proud to announce that we have now become an official member of the British Parking Association (BPA).
The 720 members of the BPA embrace manufacturers, car park operators, local authorities, health authorities, airports, railways, shopping centres, bailiffs and consultants – to that we can now add Mobile App Technology to the list – with ParkJockey becoming one of the first!
So what does becoming a member of the BPA mean? It is denoted that the BPA are the largest professional association in Europe and the recognised authority on parking. Their main aim is to represent and promote the best interests of the parking profession, and also influence those who are involved within this growing industry. Therefore, it can only mean ParkJockey is soon to be the word on the lips of many drivers, especially as they tire endlessly searching for parking – ParkJockey is going to be their first option and revolutionise the way you park, complimenting our business innovation award.
Strive for greatness, this is only the beginning . . . Watch this space!

For one day only, you have the freedom to take your spot centre stage in the heart of London, Trafalgar Square. Get your artillery by your side and release your working week stress, I quote “become a significant part of part of pop culture!” From London to Shanghai you can endure the satisfaction of throwing a pillow without a car in the world.

Book a parking space, and don’t worry about the fluff, or feathers, I mean fuss because its guaranteed and no one else can take it from you!

More notably, children will be waking to quickly run down to the kitchen and bring their mothers a bowl of granola and a nice cup of tea, to mark the occasion of Mother’s Day, traditionally known as “Mothering Sunday.”
Mothers are our most precious belongings!

Today was an extremely exciting day! Not only was the sun out in London but at a high-profile event held in the heart of the London TechHub, Mayor Boris Johnson unveiled his until now secretly-kept plans for the first ever London Technology Week. The Mayor was optimistic and confident that it will contend on a similar global scale to London Fashion Week, which was, of course, “music to the ears” of the London’s Tech City.
Our London Heads of Operations, Kamal Rajput and Stefan Friederichs, along with our Managing Partner attended the event. A host of leading figures in tech, such as Michael Acton Smith of MindCandy, Facebook VP-EMEA Nicola Mendelsohn and Oscar-winning CEO of Framestore, Sir William Sargent, were present.
The announcement has already stirred up interest in the press and reflects the Mayor’s ambition to make London the “tech capital of the world.”
As importantly, Mr. Johnson welcomed three new firms to the capital, one of which is (drumroll) – PARKJOCKEY !!!
In an instant, we were tweeted about and also made it into the London Evening Standard, along with several blogs and London24. Channel 9 of Australia also interviewed our Heads of Operations for a quick ParkJockey demo. They seemed pretty impressed!
