City of Grand Rapids launching new parking app

The new MOTU app officially launches Thursday, June 21.

The City of Grand Rapids is discontinuing it's partnership with the parking app, ParkMobile.

They are replacing it with a new app they are calling "MOTU." Like ParkMobile, it allows drivers to download an app and pay a parking meter from their phone.

"MOTU, which is based off the city's motto, Motu Viget, which is strength and activity, [is a] faster application and set up for our customers," explained Josh Naramore, Grand Rapids Mobile GR director.

"More importantly, it's a more localized option to make sure that the features work for our customers and not just what a national brand is saying."

The new MOTU app officially launches Thursday, June 21.

►Download it here: Apple App Store or Google Play store

If you have questions about parking in Grand Rapids or experience issues with a meter or pay station, you're asked to call the Customer Service Center at 616-456-3000.
