Summary:A computer-implemented system and method for directing motorists to available parking spaces. Availability of a plurality of parking spaces is determined (51). A street location of a dynamic parking sign comprising identifiers is determined (53). A direction of each of the available parking spaces from the street location is determined and the available parking spaces are grouped by direction. Parking factors are applied to the grouped available parking spaces and at least one of the groups of parking spaces that satisfy the parking factors is selected. The direction of the selected groups of parking spaces is displayed on a dynamic street sign.
