Examples of Parking Lot Signs

Know Where You May Park and Always Read the Parking Lot Signs.

It is your responsibility to read and comply with all campus parking signs and the Traffic and Parking Regulations. Example parking signs are available here.

Parking permit decals must be completely affixed by the manufacturer's adhesive on the inside of the front windshield, lower left corner on the driver's side. Hangtags must be displayed on the inside mirror support and the date must be visible through the windshield from outside the vehicle.

Garage Reserved parking permits authorize parking in the reserved spaces in the assigned garage. Employees with Garage permits may also park in Faculty/Staff, Student and Remote parking lots. Students with Garage parking permits may also park in Student and Remote parking lots.

The Harmon Avenue Parking Garage is a gated garage with entry and exit access controlled by payment of the hourly fee or a proximity card. Drivers who purchase an annual garage permit will receive a proximity card for parking access. The proximity card will activate gate for entry and exit when held within 12 inches of the card reader. Drivers who wish to pay the hourly rate will take a time-coded ticket at the entrance. Prior to exit, drivers must use their ticket to make a payment at any of the pay-on-foot stations located on levels 1 and 6 of the garage. There is a 15-minute “grace period” from the time of payment for drivers to exit the garage without paying for additional time. Payment can be made by cash or credit card. Pre-paid debit cards are also available at the Parking office located on the 6th level of the parking facility. An email application for a garage parking permit can be submitted on-line by going to the Transit and Parking Department web page at http://parking.uark.edu/ and selecting the Parking Facilities section. Emergency phones and security cameras are located on all levels of the garage. Vehicle entrances and exits are located on Harmon Avenue, Duncan Avenue, and Williams Street. Razorback Transit Route 56 serves the Harmon Avenue Parking Garage at the Level 1 entrance on Duncan Avenue and the Level 6 entrance on Harmon Avenue. A Transit and Parking cashier is also located in the Harmon Avenue Parking Garage. Customers can pay for citations, purchase permits and file appeals at the garage location.

Faculty/Staff parking permits authorize parking in Faculty/Staff, Student and Remote parking lots. Resident Reserved Student parking permits authorize parking in their assigned Resident Reserved zone, Student and Remote parking lots. Student parking permits authorize parking in Student and Remote parking lots. Remote parking permits authorize parking in Remote parking lots only. Note: During summer class sessions only; all permits may park in any student lot except parking lot 79.

Temporary Visitor parking permits authorize parking at regular metered spaces without paying the meter fee and in parking lots designated as Faculty/Staff, Student or Remote. Meter payment is required at short term (gold) and garage meters. Temporary Visitor parking permits are not valid in the Harmon Avenue Parking Garage. Visitors with a current Garage Visitor parking permit may park in the Stadium Drive Parking Garage metered spaces and at regular parking meters without paying the meter fee and in Faculty/Staff, Student and Remote parking lots. These permits are labeled as Garage Visitor to distinguish them from regular visitor parking permits. Short-term (gold) meters require payment at all times. Regular One-Day and Multiple Day Temporary visitor parking permits require meter payment in the parking garage.

Parking is prohibited at meters that are inoperative. If a meter malfunctions and you receive a ticket, you should immediately file a meter malfunction report at the Transit and Parking Department or go online to http://parking.uark.edu/ and select the Parking Control section for the meter malfunction form. Otherwise, all meter violations require payment.

Current University of Arkansas parking permits with Access decals authorize parking in any Accessible (handicap) space in any parking lot on campus. If parking in an Accessible space in a garage, a UA parking permit for that facility or meter payment is required. Access permits also authorize parking in Faculty/Staff, Student and Remote lots. For information on obtaining an Access decal, please call the Transit and Parking Department at (479) 575-2459.

Please Remember: If you always read the parking lot signs and park only where authorized, you can avoid receiving a parking citation. Any vehicle parked illegally on the University of Arkansas campus is subject to tow and impound or immobilization at the owner's expense. Lot designations are subject to change without prior notice. Therefore, you should check the signs each time you enter a parking lot.
