Latest Updates
Car Parking Arrangements Semester 2 2021/22
Since April 2020, car parking charges have been suspended and colleagues authorised to work on campus have been able to sign up for a car parking space, based on a no guarantee, ‘right to roam’ model. Following a review, the current ‘right to roam’ model will remain in place for Semester 2. During Semester 1, the car park usage levels have remained well within capacity, as working from home where possible has continued to be advised.
Colleagues who are authorised to work on campus should ensure they have registered to use the car parks via SharePoint: https://strath.sharepoint.com/sites/estates/Lists/Car%20Parking%20Interim%20Access/
We will keep you informed of any further car parking updates via Inside Strathclyde and this webpage. If you have any questions or comments, please get in touch with the team at carparking@strath.ac.uk
New car parking management system
The Digital Campus Sub Committee has approved the introduction of a new Car Parking Management System, which is due to be introduced at the start of academic year 2022-2023. Updates will be shared via Inside Strathclyde and the "New Car Parking Management System" webpage.
Experiencing problems with your staff card?
If you’re experiencing problems with accessing University car parks using your staff card, please inform us as soon as possible. It is important to swipe your card every time you use the car parks so that we can monitor demand on parking. Security Operatives on campus can give you access to a car park if needed, but if you are regularly experiencing problems with your staff card it is important you contact staffcards@strath.ac.uk to resolve this.
