A valid UC Davis permit is required to park
on campus.
UC Davis uses Aggie
Park, an app that allows drivers to conduct
parking permit transactions from their mobile devices.
Visitor lots (aka C lots) allow hourly parking in any
space at $2.75 for the first hour, $6.50 for
two hours and $11.25 for three hours. Daily rates are
available in these lots for visitors for $17 per
day.
There are solar-powered COSMO permit dispensers
in the C lots that allow for non-app usage. You’ll need
to know your license plate number.
After 5:00 pm these lots become available for hourly
rates to all visitors.
Visitors with a disabled
placard/plate may park without displaying
an additional permit, and may park in spaces where UC
Davis DSA permits are honored. Disabled placards/plates
are not valid in restricted spaces (such as 1 hour A
permit spaces), loading zones, red zones, center core and
reserved areas.
