THE BIG PICTURE
Unsecured parking areas continued to pose the
greatest risk in Q1 2018
Encouraging the creation of a network of secure parking
sites across Europe remains one of TAPA EMEA’s strategic
priorities. Alongside the launch of its new Parking Security
Requirements (PSR) Security Standard, the Association has
also created a new membership category for Parking Place
Operators (PPO) and extended its Security Service Provider
membership to include Parking Booking Platform Operators
in an effort to engage more closely with parking sites, their
owners and customers. In 2018, as PPOs begin to adopt one
of the three levels of the PSR Standard, TAPA’s Manufacturer
and Logistics Service Provider members will be able to easily
identify these secure sites using the Association’s new online
tool for secure parking. This not only provides information in total – occurred when trucks were parked in unsecured
