Local merchants will benefit significantly from the Cincy EZPark system. Increased meter availability and turnover will encourage more visits to businesses and reduce the amount of time spent on people asking for coins to feed the meter. Not only that, but additional revenues generated by the City will be used to improve sidewalks and street lighting, thereby improving the Cincinnati experience and drawing more customers to the area.
