Parking
To: Members of the Yale Parking Program
After careful review of ongoing costs associated with maintaining our parking facilities, we write to inform you that effective July 1, 2024, monthly and student parking fees will increase by 2.5%. Hourly and daily rates will not change.
For questions or concerns, contact Yale Parking & Transit by emailing parking@yale.edu or by calling (Monday - Friday, 8 a.m. through 2:30 p.m.) 203-432-9790.
Thank you,
Yale Parking
Parking at Yale is limited. Permit prices are based on a sliding scale.
Any parking permit issued by Yale University must be displayed. Should you drive another vehicle without a permit, it is your duty to inform the Parking Department.
All vehicles parked on University property must be registered, insured, and operable.
Members of the Yale community who drive to work and do not participate in the Yale parking program are strongly discouraged from parking on residential streets in neighborhoods around Yale’s campus. Yale supports New Haven’s residential parking zones which help ensure adequate parking for New Haven residents. Enforcement actions such as tickets, towing, and booting of vehicles may result from parking violations. Please contact the Yale Parking Office for assistance with your parking needs.
Rates, Permits, Applications and Regulations
Call or email CTrides to determine if there’s a more cost-effective and sustainable way for you to get to campus.
If you decide not to park on campus, or want to suspend your parking permit to use transit, you’ll receive:
- Savings on the cost of your monthly transit pass through pre-taxed payroll deduction—and the pass mailed directly to your home.
- A Guaranteed Ride Home for carpoolers in case of emergencies.
- Three free parking stays per month (if you purchase a monthly bus pass—1 free parking stay/month if you purchase a 10-ride pass).
- Six months to reclaim your current parking space if you don’t wish to continue with your transit commute.
As always, you can count on the free Yale Shuttle to get around during the day, and use a car anytime if you become a Zipcar Member.
