UW Tacoma is an urban campus, making parking a challenge at times. There are a number of paid parking options on and around campus, as well as a limited amount of free street parking a short walk away. 
If you're interested in ditching the frustrations of driving and parking altogether, or you're hoping to reduce your impact on the environment, consider a Commute Reduction and explore the many convenient and sustainable transportation options available.

Reserved and Special Event Parking

Whether your department needs a single reservation for a visitor, passes for small groups or coordinated parking for a large event, Transportation Services can help.
