Carpooling

Carpooling significantly reduces your parking and gas costs. Two person carpools receive a discount of 60% off the annual parking permit fee. Three or more person carpools receive a discount of 75%. If you can't carpool together everyday, don't worry! You will receive up to three free one-day permits per month for days when carpooling isn't possible. AND in case of emergency you can take advantage of our FREE Guaranteed Ride Home program.
