<strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong>, Belfast<br />
<strong>Case</strong> <strong>Study</strong><br />
<strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> Belfast chooses <strong>Electro</strong><br />
<strong>Automation</strong> to supply a car parking solution
<strong>Titanic</strong> by name, <strong>Titanic</strong> by nature, Belfast’s <strong>Titanic</strong><br />
<strong>Quarter</strong> is one of the world’s largest urbanwaterfront<br />
regeneration projects measuring over<br />
185 acres on the site where RMS <strong>Titanic</strong> was designed<br />
and built.<br />
The <strong>Titanic</strong> Project in Belfast is one of Europe’s most ambitious visitor attraction schemes.<br />
Central to the needs of this busy area is the ability to deal with the large numbers of visitors<br />
who arrive in their cars and need somewhere to park. The <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> is planned to eventually<br />
consist of seven separate car parks, each servicing the needs to the building it is attached<br />
to.<br />
When <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> wanted an integrated site-wide parking control system, they undertook<br />
an intensive evaluation exercise. The result was they chose <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong>. Using<br />
world-renowned Swiss Zeag equipment, <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong> was able to meet or exceed the<br />
challenging performance specification that <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> demanded. <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> was<br />
able to achieve a solution that allowed site-wide control from a single point, one that would<br />
self manage public parking, tenant parking, contract parking, staff parking, deliveries and casual<br />
visitors. It also allowed <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> the flexibility of independent, central or remote control<br />
within each car park and the fully autonomous modular design future proofed the system,<br />
allowing for infinite expansion on one or several sites.<br />
It was vital to <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> that the car parking system they chose would allow the flexibility<br />
of unlimited expansion, and the transfer of central control to any one of the car parks to facilitate<br />
operations.
Exceptional reporting and auditing modules meant complete confidence in achieving total control<br />
of this wide and varied multi-use site. When combined with <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong>’s unsurpassed<br />
24/7/365 technical support, the package was simply irresistible. Quality projects deserve<br />
quality partners.<br />
Following a detailed tender process and strict evaluations of all the systems that were available,<br />
<strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> took the decision to select <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong> and the Zeag ORION XR<br />
parking system. Currently, the site has five car parks controlled by <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong>’s<br />
equipment. <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong> have also installed automatic doors within the <strong>Titanic</strong> Signature<br />
building allowing safe and secure access to the central ride area.<br />
A further addition to the <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> system was the addition of bespoke Variable Messaging<br />
Signs located throughout the area. These are seamlessly integrated within the Zeag Management<br />
Station, allowing real time control and display of the spaces available in each connected<br />
car park.<br />
The <strong>Titanic</strong> <strong>Quarter</strong> are delighted with the level of expertise and equipment that <strong>Electro</strong> <strong>Automation</strong><br />
have provided and are looking forward to developing the system further to fully cater<br />
for their business needs as they expand.
