Parking while on campus

Visitors should use pay-for-parking facilities or designated visitor parking area as listed in the visitor’s section of the parking services Web site. If parking outside of these areas, visitors must obtain and display a parking permit issued by parking services unless other arrangements have been made by a hosting department.

Buses

There is no charge for visitors to ride the campus transit system, one of the largest and safest campus bus systems in the nation. Buses operate only on days when classes are in session. Hours of operation are from 6 a.m. until 1 a.m. Peak level of service are between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Campus transit operates vans from 7 a.m. until 2 a.m. that are equipped to provide curb-to-curb transportation service for guests with disabilities. Services are provided by subscription and on-demand for unscheduled trips. Schedules for campus and Athens city routes are available at the Tate Student Center information desk and the Visitors Center.

Special event and football parking

The safe and orderly accommodation of approximately 90,000 football fans requires a special allocation of parking resources in the vicinity of Sanford Stadium. Some regular weekday parking eligibility policies may be exempted during these special events. Access to several streets and lots will be restricted to vehicles bearing special parking passes.

General guidelines
1. There shall be no parking on sidewalks; ample parking is available.
2. Parking services and/or the public safety division may block off streets and parking areas as necessary for special events or for construction purposes.
Questions about Game Day parking should be addressed to the University of Georgia Police Department at (706) 542-0097 or the University of Georgia Athletic Association at (706) 542-1231.
