<p>Mangaluru International Airport (MIA) has introduced an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system to offer seamless entry and exit of vehicles from the airport.</p>.<p>The ANPR system reads the number plate of vehicles entering the airport through any one of the four lanes at the entry booths. If a vehicle exits the airport within the mandated free passage time of 10 minutes, the boom barrier at the exit booths automatically opens. For those who need to park their vehicle beyond this time have to pay the prescribed parking fee – digitally or in cash at the central pay station near the flag post on the lower ground floor.</p>.<p><strong>Read | <a href="https://www.deccanherald.com/state/mangaluru/mangaluru-international-airport-inducts-upgraded-crash-ambulances-to-meet-dgca-norms-1148483.html">Mangaluru International Airport inducts upgraded crash ambulances to meet DGCA norms</a></strong></p>.<p>“The advantage of paying parking fee at the parking pre-payment counter is that a user gets additional 10 minutes of buffer time to exit the parking lot by scanning the receipt at the exit booth,” the airport spokesperson said. The parking slot is up to 30 minutes, up to two hours, for every additional two hours up to 8 hours and for 8 hours up to 24 hours and beyond.</p>.<p>This buffer time gives one the leeway of not having to pay the parking fee for the next slot, if applicable, the spokesperson explained. If one has chosen the FASTag mode of payment and entered the airport through the FASTag lane (lane 2 at entry & lane 3 at exit), such customers too can experience seamless passage by exiting through the dedicated FASTag lane at the exit also.</p>.<p>Keeping in mind the need to facilitate faster movement of emergency response vehicles such as ambulances and crash-fire tenders, the airport recently opened an additional emergency lane adjacent to lane one at the exit. This lane will allow seamless movement of these response vehicles if there is a rush at the existing exit lanes, the spokesperson added.</p>
