Visitor Parking

Pay by the hour facilities are located in the North Deck, Tate Center Pay Lot, South Deck, Carlton Street Deck, Hull Street Deck, and Ramsey Center for short term parking. Daily fees are $4 for the first hour and $1 for each additional hour not to exceed $10 per day.

Pay boxes are also located in the CCRC Lot, River’s Crossing Lot, Family Housing Lots. The Legion Pool Lot is applicable only during pool operations.

To park in a handicapped space, a Department of Transportation issued handicapped tag is required. Campus Transit disability vans offer point to point transportation and appointments may be scheduled by calling (706) 542-7183 (Disability Services) or (706) 369-6220 (Campus Transit) for a pick up appointment to move you from your parking space to your desired location.

In order to ensure space availability, parking services enforces parking regulations for all on campus. Following parking regulations at www.parking.uga.edu/ParkingInformation.aspx will preclude citation fees which range from $15 to $150 with most at $40.

Towing and boot charges are much higher. The ability to move on campus is limited.

Football and Special Events

During certain special events on campus, particularly on football Saturdays, certain rules are established to limit where people can park. Resident students, staff and faculty will be directed to park only in certain areas starting Friday night through the end of the game on Saturday. Failure to comply with gameday rules (www.parking.uga.edu/FootballParking.aspx) will result in cars being towed. It is critical that students park in the designated areas to avoid towing charges issued by the university police.

 

Campus Transit

The Campus Transit System provides services throughout campus. Bus and disabled transportation services are provided on a no-fare basis. Regular route services provided by Campus Transit are available to all students, staff and faculty.

Campus Transit services are funded by a transportation fee paid by all students. When classes are in session, buses operate Monday-Friday from 7 a.m. until 12:30 a.m.

Weekend service is provided on Saturdays and Sundays during the fall and spring semesters. Limited service is provided on other non-class days, as well. System maps are available at many offices on campus and on the buses which describe the various routes and service frequencies.
