As a reminder, a valid UK parking permit is required when parking on campus during the summer. Summer parking enforcement begins on Monday, May 8, and continues through Friday, August 11.
Parking is generally more plentiful on campus in the summer, with additional options available for any valid UK permit. Summer permits authorize students to park in most student lots, as well as Cornerstone Garage (PS #5), the Scott Street area lots, and the Sports Center area lots. See our summer parking map for more details.
Unlike previous years, however, certain floors of Rose Street Garage (PS #2) and Sports Center Garage (PS #7) will not be open to any valid UK permit. Instead, these structures will be restricted to their specific permit types: E2 and R2 for Rose Street Garage, and E7, C7, EC7, and R7 for Sports Center Garage.
Employee lots also remain restricted to designated employee permits throughout the summer months
Most lots are controlled for valid permits from 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. However, many employee intermediate lots revert to any valid permit after 3:30 p.m. weekdays.
Like Rose Street Garage and Sports Center Garage, some surface lots also remain on control for specific permit types 24 hours a day, seven days a week. These include employee reserved lots, the Nutter Center Lot, Memorial Coliseum residential areas (R17 and R18), Complex Drive (R7), the Football Training Center Core Lot, the South Mill Lot (C40), and Seminary area residential lots (R29 and R30)
Metered or paid visitor lots also remain on control over the summer and require payment. Summer parking permits do not authorize users to park at meters or in pay lots without paying the meter
Please note that even when lots are not controlled for permits, they are still monitored for other parking violations including, but not limited to, parking in fire lanes, parking on yellow lines, and unauthorized parking in ADA-accessible areas
