USF’s parking garages, especially Beard and Laurel Garage, typically have parking available and offer regular, convenient Bull Runner service to stops across campus. Lot 18, located off Sycamore Drive, also has parking available and serves as a good option for those who typically park in the Yuengling Center lots. Additionally, after 5:30 pm and on weekends, cars with valid USF parking permits (except Y) may park out of their designated areas, excluding Resident and Reserved parking spaces.
As always, we appreciate your patience and cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact Parking & Transportation Services at psweb@usf.edu or (813) 974-3990.
