Visitors must pass control points at Whitaker, West Campus lots

The parking lot adjacent to the Whitaker Hall for Biomedical Engineering, near the intersection of Forest Park Parkway and Skinker Boulevard, is now a controlled-access lot.

Permit holders and visitors must pass a control point near Whitaker Hall to enter the lot. Those entering without a permit will be charged $10 to park. University departments can make arrangements in advance with Parking and Transportation Services to extend the University rate of $5 to those attending events. The location will be staffed.

Controlled parking also has been implemented at the West Campus east surface lot. Permit holders and others validated for this area must pass a control point near the West Campus Library for access to the lot. Visitors will be charged a $1 hourly rate for parking upon exit. This location also will be staffed.

The changes were made to discourage parking on campus lots by customers riding MetroLink.
