VISITOR LOT CHANGES
Commuter Services has installed parking kiosks in the Union visitor lot to replace the gates and the attendants. The kiosks will function as the point of contact for purchasing and validating parking for guests and visitors to campus.
There will be two main changes as a result of the new kiosk system:
- There will no longer be spitter tickets or pay lot attendants, rather customers will purchase their desired time through the kiosk using their license plate and credit card.
- Sticker validations will no longer be valid in the Union visitor lot. Instead, departments may purchase “coupon codes” for their visitors. Please contact our reservation department for details.
