A system for the control of parking of vehicles, and for use with vehicles which include or contain apparatus for receiving and displaying directional information for the guidance of a driver and for providing signals denoting the current location of the respective vehicle. Participating vehicles are tracked and after entering the proximity of a vehicle park given instructions directing them to a specific parking lanes and parking bay or set of bays in order to disrupt known driver preference patterns such as seeking bays close to a venue entry or car park exit. The parking instructions ensure that the majority of vehicles manoeuvring into parking bays are spaced apart from vehicles that are also manoeuvring for parking. The parking instructions are combined with satellite navigation and in-vehicle display, which may be carried rather than a fixture, which provides instructions such as to park facing forwards.
