Parking guidelines

Vehicles must display a valid UW parking permit or be in paid status during hours of control.

Refer to lot entrance signs for hours of control.
Check for special event signage near the lot entrance and individual stall signs for additional restrictions.

In general, a UW parking permit is valid when it is in paid status, displayed in the current parking year, and properly displayed in a vehicle that is parked in a permissible location during the time period(s) listed on the permit or relevant policy, unless the location is closed for construction or during a special event.

Regardless of posted hours of control, certain areas are restricted at all times: driveways and aisles, reserved stalls, disabled stalls and loading zones.

Vehicles may not park in a parking facility for more than 72 hours (three days) without prior authorization from UW Transportation Services. Stored vehicles are subject to citation or tow at the owner’s expense.
