The information contained herein comprises the official UNL Parking & Transit Services Regulation as of July 1, 2009. These regulations are deemed necessary to facilitate the safe and orderly conduct of University business.

Parking on the campuses of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln or on properties owned, leased, or contracted for University use by the Board of Regents is not a right, it is a privilege, available only as provided by the official UNL Parking & Transit Services Regulations.

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln, through the Board of Regents and its administrative officers, is empowered by the State law (Section 85-106) to establish parking and traffic regulations and to invoke penalties for violating such regulations.

Pursuant to authority granted by the State of Nebraska and assignment of responsibilities by the Board of Regents, it is the duty of UNL Parking & Transit Services and the UNL Police to enforce the official UNL Parking & Transit Services Regulations.

All University of Nebraska-Lincoln parking facilities, except metered areas and time-controlled zones, require a valid University of Nebraska parking permit 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition, faculty/staff or students parking a vehicle on UNL-controlled property must register that vehicle with Parking & Transit Services.

These regulations provide information on the purchase and use of a University of Nebraska-Lincoln parking permit and the process of vehicle registration.

Parking & Transit Services is primarily a self-funded University department. This means that all funds needed to operate the parking system are generated through the sale of parking permits, the citations issued, special event parking, etc. Parking & Transit Services does receive money from sutdent University Program Facilities Fee to help fund 30% of the UNL Transit System expenses. All parking funds are used to acquire, maintain, and improve the parking and transit accommodations at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
