• Parking zones may be seen by checking the box "Parking and Transportation" on the campus map.
• All permit classifications except for Residential Overflow are valid in Commuter Red zones including Commuter Blue permits if their desired Commuter Blue lot is full.

Gate Operations

• Traffic gates on All American Drive, Student Union Drive and Athletics Lane will remain closed 24/7 to all traffic except buses, authorized service vehicles and emergency vehicles. 

This fall will be an exciting, busy time on campus as we welcome many new members to the university community.  Plan to arrive earlier on campus, especially for the beginning of the semester, to help be on time due to some parking areas reaching capacity faster than others.
