Research Park Parking Plan
This page contains information regarding our plan to incorporate Research Park's parking into the rest of campus.
NEW RESEARCH PARK PARKING PERMIT SYSTEM LAUNCHING OCTOBER 1
Commuter Services would like to inform you of an important change to parking in the University of Utah’s Research Park. Beginning October 1, 2025, many of the parking lots and garages in the Park will be integrated with the main campus Commuter Services’ parking permit system. The integration was identified as an Operational Excellence project in 2024. This integration will result in campus-wide efficiencies related to parking management and maintenance, reduce disparity between main campus staff, faculty, students, visitors, and those that work and live in Research Park, and improve parking and transportation data used to make strategic decisions about future parking and transportation projects. All employees, students, and tenants identified in Phase 1 will be required to purchase a parking permit beginning October 1, 2025.
PROJECT TIMELINE
With approval from the University’s senior leadership, this system integration will be introduced in a phased way, over three years. Details of the phased rollout and permit designations are included in the below maps.
- Phase 1 - October 1, 2025
- Phase 2 - July 1, 2026
- Phase 3 - TBD
