Hosting a visitor or guest to your department? Do you have an employee or affiliate who regularly needs to park in different locations? Here are the options available to pay for their parking:
For visitors:
- Use the arranged parking form to order and pay for prearranged visitor parking.
- Distribute coupon codes for visitors to use in self-serve parking lots.
-
Order a short-term permit for visitors spending several consecutive days or nights on campus.
- Pay for a permanent reserved parking space for department visitors.
For employees or frequent guests:
- Request a parking card for department affiliates. Visitors present the card at a gatehouse to receive a daily parking permit or swipe it for gate arm access if appropriate.
- Order a multi-lot permit. This enables department employees to park in various campus lots while conducting University business.
