Accessible Parking for Students & Employees
Accessible parking is available to students & employees who have both a valid UAlbany student or employee parking permit and a valid license plate or placard displaying the Universal Symbol of Access. The person to whom the credential was issued must be driving or riding in the vehicle whenever accessible parking privileges are used. In addition to designated accessible spaces, valid credentials allow parking in faculty, staff, and student lots.
Accessible parking privileges do not exempt drivers from University parking regulations, parking fees, or state and local parking laws. Misuse may result in University citations, fines under New York State law, and suspension or revocation of parking privileges.
Students and employees without an accessible license plate or placard who seek a parking space for a quick errand should instead use UAlbany’s 15-minute parking spaces. Never use a blue accessible space or blue accessible aisle in these instances.
