We understand that the unavailability of on-campus parking permits can be challenging. Here are some alternative options to park and to get to and from campus:

• Public transportation: As a full-time student, your tuition includes a U-Pass, which gives you unlimited access to OC Transpo and STO services. Our campus is conveniently served by an on-site LRT station, making transit a practical and reliable option.
• Daily visitor parking: Limited daily paid parking is available at the Brooks and Mann garages, but please be aware that these lots tend to fill up quickly each day.
• City of Ottawa on-street parking: You may also consider on-street parking in nearby areas. Just be sure to read all signage carefully to avoid fines or restrictions.

Payment through payroll deduction

Multiyear parking permit

Members of the regular support and faculty staff, who hold a permanent position or a contract that is longer than one-year, are eligible for payment of their parking permit through payroll deduction for multiyear permits.

The multiyear permit does not have an expiry date. You must return the multiyear permit if you leave the University of Ottawa, if your contract is expired or if you no longer need the permit.

If you must be absent from the University for a minimum of three months, you may request that your permit be suspended until your return. To do so, you must return your parking permit to the Parking and Sustainable Transportation Office, before you leave.
