We design, build, and install<\/h2>\n

Ground Control Systems is the leading specialty contractor of innovative bike, board, and scooter parking in North America. With over 30 years of experience, we are on the cutting edge of the micromobility movement, and the infrastructure we create is an integral part of it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

For many developers and planners, the decision-making process is driven by \u201cwhat is\u201d not \u201cwhat can be\u201d. We take a different approach. Our parking solutions are designed for the user, by the user. It\u2019s not about the cost for us. It\u2019s about the experience.<\/p>\n

We continue to build solutions, not racks. We build for function first and form second. Brilliant? We think so.<\/p>\n
