New Information about Penn’s Temporary Occasional Parking Program
Dear Penn Commuters:
In light of the University’s work-from-home guidelines, along with rapidly changing information related to the unprecedented COVID-19 public health emergency, Penn Parking is amending its previous announcement regarding its Temporary Occasional Parking Program.
These changes are being made as a means of accommodating the University community’s essential personnel that must travel to campus.
Effective Tuesday, March 17, the following temporary daily rates are in effect at these Penn Parking lots and garages:
Garages:
- Chestnut 34 - a flat rate of $6/day
- Walnut 38 - a flat rate of $6/day
- Walnut 40 - a flat rate of $6/day
- Penn Museum - a flat rate of $6/day after 8 a.m.
Lots:
- Penn Park - a flat rate of $4/day
- Ludlow - $5/day after 2:30 p.m.
- Palestra - $5/day after 2:30 p.m.

Important Note to those who previously purchased Occasional Parking Passes:
We want to acknowledge all those commuters who have already purchased daily occasional parking tickets—especially those who came during the extremely busy hours late last week. Please know that you may still use these tickets at the designated parking facility listed on your pass. In addition, if you would like the flexibility to park at a different facility, please remember that you are welcome to refund your allotment of temporary occasional parking passes at any time, up to June 15. It is our goal to be as accommodating as possible and we appreciate your patience during this challenging time.
The Penn Transportation and Parking Office, located at 3401 Walnut Street, Suite 447A, is open Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m. If you have any questions, please visit http://www.upenn.edu/parking or call 215-898-8667.
