Big news for Sibu drivers
Starting September 2025, the Sibu Municipal Council will officially roll out a Smart Parking System, allowing you to pay for parking directly through a mobile app. No more tearing parking coupons or sticking paper on your dashboard!
📍Here’s what you need to know:
✅ Wider coverage, including suburban commercial areas like Jalan Lau King Howe
✅ Enforcement officers will use smart devices to scan license plates and check payment status
✅ Unpaid vehicles will be automatically issued fines – fully digital!
✅ Contractors are required to provide manpower to support the system
✅ All parking activity will be tracked and charged – no more free rides
🚨 Heads up:
The council will also crack down on car workshops misusing public parking spaces as personal storage. Violators will face legal action once the system is in place.
🅿️ As for the frequent queues at the UTC multi-storey car park, more signage and security staff will be deployed to improve user experience.
📣 Timeline:
📅 July – Tender process begins
📅 August – Contracts awarded
📅 September – System goes live!
