Parking Map

At 蘑菇短视频 we strive to create a campus core that is pedestrian friendly. Students, faculty, staff, and visitors can easily move from one instructional site to another, from residence halls to entertainment venues, all without needing a vehicle. We also encourage people to use our Cat-Tran campus shuttle service, designed to enhance campus safety while minimizing traffic congestion.

CAT-TRAN Routes

Long-Term Storage

A long-term storage lot has been added so that resident students may 鈥渟迟辞谤别鈥� their vehicles off campus for a minimal fee. This offers added convenience for residents still needing occasional access to a vehicle. Students living on campus and eligible for residential parking may apply for this permit. This long-term storage lot is a portion of the HHS overflow lot #76B and will have its own permit. The CAT-TRAN accesses this lot during business hours.

Parking Lot Types

Commuter parking will be moved to one area of campus to allow students to enter and access commuter lots through Forrest Hills Road reducing traffic flow problems at the main entrance during peak hours. Commuter students now have the freedom of entering and exiting the University without driving through the core of campus searching for a parking space. Commuter permits will be monitored 7am-5pm, Monday-Friday. Commuters have the ability to park in Faculty/Staff Monday-Friday after 5pm as well as on weekends. Note that this does not include parking in meter lots without paying or reserved spaces.

Resident parking will be located directly around the living areas on campus. This should allow students to park their vehicles near their dorms and walk, bike, or use the Cat Tran to travel into the core of campus for classes, dining and other activities. Resident lots will be monitored from 7am-11pm M-F. Walmart shuttles run once a month.
