- For the first two (2) weeks of each fall and spring semesters, NO blocked parking requests will be approved by UTPD.
- Parking spaces on Tuesdays and Thursdays are extremely limited and may not be approved depending upon the number of spaces requested. Please consider Monday, Wednesday, or Friday.

How Do I Request Reserved Parking?
- To request spaces to be coned off for event VIPs, approval needs to be given by UTPD. If approved, they will place cones out prior to 8:00 a.m. the day of your event. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to ensure someone is in the parking lot to remove the cones for your attendees.
- Complete the appropriate event request form in Astra answering all questions pertaining to your parking needs.
- For an event already scheduled in Astra, log into Astra and use the Parking Request Form.
- Be sure to get your VIP their temporary parking pass through the Parking Permit Portal so they do not receive a ticket.
Alumni House Parking?
A maximum of 14 parking spaces can be reserved for Alumni House events occurring Monday
– Thursday from 8:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m.
Bus Parking
Buses are encouraged to park off campus. If parking is needed, log into Astra and use the Parking request form and select “Parking - Bus” instead of a parking
lot. If possible, UTPD will assign a location or contact you with concerns.
