Parking and Transportation Services
Welcome! Your Parking and Transportation Services (PTS) team is focused on keeping U of I moving. The beautiful campus and nearby downtown Moscow community are readily accessible by many people via walking or biking. For shorter travel times or longer distances, alternative transportation options are available. For Vandals with mobility concerns, Vandal Access pre-scheduled transportation provides access to facilities and programs on campus. Parking a vehicle on campus requires daily payment or purchase of an annual permit, subject to eligibility. Availability of a specific permit type or parking location is not guaranteed.
Questions? Contact PTS at parking@uidaho.edu or 208-885-6424.
