Contractor Parking

Contractor Parking

All contractor vehicles on the PSU campus must display a valid parking permit at all times except while parked in designated loading zones for under 30 minutes. PSU does not pay for contractor parking. Contractors are responsible for paying all parking fees and fines for their employees, consultants, sub-contractors, and suppliers.

Parking options vary depending on the length of time needed; however, parking is extremely limited, therefore limiting the number of vehicles brought to campus is appreciated.

ELECTRONIC PERMIT REQUEST

You can now submit your permit request online, please allow 1-2 business days for your request to be processed.
