One-Day Visitor
Departments may purchase one-day visitor permits for $6 each. To purchase, send us a memo, signed by someone with signature authority over your account - scanning and emailing the memo is fine. Send to parking@utexas.edu Provide the account number you want us to IDT and how many PRC/WPR only scratch-off permits you want to purchase. Departments can purchase as many and as often as needed. Most departments start with 10-20 and then repurchase when then stock dips below 5 permits. One-day visitor permits will be kept in the department and given to the guest upon arrival to the department location. These visitors do not need to stop at the guard kiosk.
Multiple-Day Visitors
If you have a guest that will need parking for multiple days, fill out the Event Parking Request Form. Once this form has been submitted, someone from the PTS office will send you an approval by e-mail with further instructions. Visitor parking at PRC is $6 per vehicle per day, so an IDT (Inter Departmental Transfer) Number will be required. All vehicles are required to display a valid Pay and Display permit or multi-day permit obtained through the Event Parking Request form. Multiple-day visitor permits will be kept in the department and given to the guest upon arrival to the department location. These visitors do not need to stop at the guard kiosk.
