Abstract

A transport document distribution system includes a first payment terminal on the road for sale and delivery of parking documents associated with a right to a parking place and a second piece of equipment. The payment terminal provides, to a user, a list of selectable transport documents, detecting the user selection of a transport document, implementing user payment of the selected transport document and delivering to the user, in response to the payment, an identifier of the transport title. The second piece of equipment requests, from a user, the provision of a transport document identifier, in order to receive an identifier supplied by the user and previously delivered by a first piece of equipment, in order to determine, as a function of the received identifier, the transport document having previously been selected and paid for by the user and to deliver the transport document to the user.
