HATFIELD, HERTFORDSHIRE – 17 December 2024 – PayByPhone, a global leader in mobile parking payments, has been appointed as the exclusive cashless parking payment provider at UNESCO World Heritage Site Stonehenge from 17 December. This comes in time for an influx of visitors for the Winter Solstice celebrations, which will take place at sunrise on Saturday 21 December 2024. Stonehenge was built to align with the sun on the solstices; on the Winter Solstice, the sun sets to the south-west of the stone circle.
Visitors – whether pagans, druids, spiritualists, locals, or just simply tourists - who travel to this world-famous historic site can enjoy the simplicity of cashless parking at the Stonehenge car park to pay for their parking session. The PayByPhone’s Maps feature allows drivers to locate the car park at the visitor centre before they start their journey to Stonehenge and to pin their vehicle location once they have parked. And the app is available in 14 languages, making it inclusive for anyone who visits the iconic location.
Adam Dolphin, UK Managing Director for PayByPhone, says, “We are thrilled to launch PayByPhone at one of Britain’s most iconic sites – Stonehenge. PayByPhone will make the the parking experience as hassle-free as possible for visitors so they can start their visit to the famous stone circle as quickly as possible rather than queue at a parking payment kiosk. I would encourage people planning to visit to download the app now. Registration takes less than 30 seconds.”
For the Winter Solstice, the Stonehenge car park opens at 515am.
Users of the PayByPhone app will find that it is about more than parking; it offers them many of their vehicle needs in one convenient app. The Fuel finder helps users find the cheapest petrol and diesel stations and EV Charge Locator and EV Payments enable users to find EV charging stations and pay for the session as well. The app’s MOT bookings system not only reminders the user of when their MOT is due but also makes managing the task easier.
