Fall 2019 Parking Changes
All Garage Red Reserved Zone and Reserved Space Additional Allowance
Parking lot F62 located between the Redbird Arena and Turner Hall has been added to the allowances for the all garage reserved zone permit and the individual reserved space permit. As a reminder, the allowances for each permit are printed on the back of the permit for your reference. You may also find permit allowances by clicking on the permits tab and viewing the descriptions.
Pay Stations and Pay-by-Cell
In parking lot M47, located between the Watterson Dining Center and the Alamo II book store, coin operated parking meters have been replaced. To pay for parking in the lot, individuals can pay at one of two multi-space pay stations or using a mobile application. Just as with metered spaces, hourly pay spaces are enforced and must be paid 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Any malfunctions that prevent you from paying for parking must be reported at the time they occur, even if after business hours. Call the Office of Parking and Transportation at 309-438-8391 to report the malfunction. Vehicles parked in unpaid spaces are subject to citation.
