Summer Parking Fun Has Begun

As of Monday, service to the Carter-Finley Park and Ride lot has been halted for the summer and the Varsity Parking lot will operate as a free Park and Ride lot.

Those are among the many changes NCSU Transportation will implement now that most students have left following the spring semester.

Others include:

  • Beginning Friday, May 6, through Tuesday, Aug. 16, any vehicle with a valid parking permit may park in student parking areas (RC, RE, RP, RW, RS) and university-owned parking decks other than the Pouton Deck and Oval West Deck on Centennial Campus.  If unsure of where to park, call Transportation at 919-515-3424 or check Transportation’s website.
  • The Dan Allen gates are always raised during student break times. They will be raised during the break between spring and  summer semester: May 6 until May 15, July 2 through July 4, and Aug. 1–15.  Gates may also be raised to accommodate events on campus.
  • Anyone who needs a parking permit for the summer can now purchase them at the Transportation office at 2721 Sullivan Drive on weekdays from 7 a.m. until 5 p.m. The cost of the summer permit is $80 and allows parking in all student areas.
  • Summer construction has begun around campus, causing some impacts to traffic, as identified on this campus map. For more information, contact Greg Cain, gecain@ncsu.edu or (919) 515-1603, or David Gregory at dwgrego2@ncsu.edu or (919) 515-1605.
  • Please note the change in traffic pattern related to the Harrelson Hall demolition is currently scheduled to begin on May 9. During this project, there will be no exit to Yarbrough Drive via the Stinson Drive Extension.  All Stinson Drive traffic will exit via Broughton Drive to Hillsborough Street.
