Parking coupons can be purchased from all of the 15 parking coupons booths located at strategic location in the City of Miri. Please click Find BPS BOOTH for the one nearest to you.
The common denominations, i.e. RM0.40, RM1.60 and RM5.00, parking coupons (exclusive of government tax) are available at all BPS coupon booths.
Please take note that RM0.40 parking coupons can only be used for the 1st half hour of parking at blue zone and first 1 hour at green zone, the RM1.60 parking coupons can be used 1 hour at blue zone and 2 hour at green zone while the RM5.00 is a daily parking coupon (1 full day parking coupon)
Decide on how long you are likely to stay on arrival at a parking space, scratch off completely the 5 relevant tabs (year, month, day, hour & minutes) and display the coupons prominently, visibly and neatly on the dashboard in front of you.
For those who have over parked, BPS parking wardens will issue over parking compound (OPC) which they will have to pay within fourteen (14) working days after the date of the OPN issued at BPS coupon booths. Please always ensure and check your receipts when making payments at the parking booths.
Please always tear of a piece of coupon from the coupon booklet for display at the dashboard and not the whole booklet as the direct heat from the sun will dry up the ink making them hard to scratch off later.
HOW COUPON PARKING SYSTEM WORKS
- Buy parking coupons in advance
- Plan your parking period, if you need more than 1 coupon to cover the parking duration, the start time of the second coupon should be the expiry time of the first coupon.
- Scratch off completely the six relevant tabs to indicate the year, month, day, commencing time of parking (hour and minute) and lastly parking either at blue or green zone
- Display the coupons visibly and neatly on the front dashboard of your car. Do not leave any used coupons on the dashboard of your vehicle
