University Parking
We come under Section 4.1—Infrastructure and Facility Services, part of Division 4, and have been involved in the University of Bonn’s mobility concept since 2015. Our aim is to reduce the number of cars and motorbikes on University grounds.
A valid parking permit is required in order to use the parking areas at the University. Permanent parking permits, daily parking permits and parking machine tickets are considered parking permits.
External service providers can request a free parking permit if they need to park at the University while working on its behalf.
