There are Special Parking Permits issued by UNL Parking & Transit Services to individuals requiring Handicapped, Medical, and Vendor/Contractor parking.

Pregnancy

Women, whose medical condition during pregnancy requires a closer parking space as a matter of accommodation, should contact the Parking & Transit Services Office at 472-1800.

Handicapped Permits

Individuals with physical disabilities who have a UNL standard parking permit may obtain a permit valid for use in another area or an area reserved for the exclusive use of handicapped persons by presenting UNL Parking & Transit Services a current State handicapped permit authorization. For periods of less than six months, a letter of verification from a physician is required; the State handicapped permit is not needed. Short-term arrangements can also be made. These permits allow parking in any regular stall, but not in a reserved stall. If handicapped stalls are continually full, please contact Parking & Transit Services.

Vendor/Contractor Permits

Vehicles parked on campus by vendor/contractors doing business with the University must display a Vendor/Contractor Permit. Misuse of this permit will result in confiscation of the permit and forfeiture of parking privileges.
