We strive to make your life easier, not (tube) strike to make it harder!

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!

ParkJockey Tube Strike

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.

The first Earth Day took place in the year 1970.  44 years later to this day – Earth Day has instigated an ongoing revolution in modern environmental movements across the globe.  Every year on this day, over a billion people in 190 countries take action for Earth Day.

ParkJockey Earth Day

The purpose of Earth Day is to work with each other and focus on environmental challenges that we are currently facing. Notably, the world’s cities face problems revolving around the notion of climate change, especially as more people are migrating to them – global warming needs to be addressed and we as a community can do it!

Currently, around the world, there are people taking part in movements supporting the environment. At ParkJockey, we feel we are part of this movement, too. We are passionate about protecting the environment and our parking solution most definitely expresses this:

Immediately you can guarantee your spot with our recommended parking options – all you have to do it hit book, no frills but easy to follow directions!
