Parking Enforcement

Parking Services are managed by the Department of Public Safety and are designed to provide students, faculty, staff, and visitors with adequate, accessible and well maintained parking facilities.

Parking regulations help to ensure that there is an orderly system in place for all who use vehicles when coming to campus. The regulations also ensure that emergency vehicles and equipment have immediate access to all campus locations. Voluntary compliance is encouraged; however, individuals who disregard the University's parking regulations will receive appropriate sanctions.

For specific information about the Lock Haven University parking regulations, permit fees and enforcement procedures, please go to www.lhup.edu/parking. Everyone who operates or parks a vehicle on campus should review the Parking Regulations section.
