Parking Policy

Parking at UWSThe purpose of the UWS Parking and Traffic Policy is to assist in facilitating the proper and effective management of parking and traffic on all UWS campuses and to inform staff, students, visitors to, and tenants of UWS of their responsibilities when they park on a UWS campus.
