Visitors are always welcome at the University of Delaware. There are a number of parking lots available to visitors on the Newark campus during the business day. These include the Visitors Center lot (lot 41), the Trabant Parking Garage (lot 17), the Center for the Arts Garage (lot 14), and the Perkins Garage (lot 4). A posted parking fee is designated for each lot. Visitors may also pay to park in metered parking spaces. 

A visitor parking permit is required to park a vehicle in other than the designated visitor lots. A visitor permit may be obtained at the Department of Public Safety or from the department or office visited. Guests of students are asked to come to the Public Safety office to register for their visitor permit. Guests who will be on campus for several days are asked to store their vehicles in the perimeter lots. These permits are valid in lots 1, 3, 7, 51, 54 and 88 between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. At all other times this permit is valid in all non-restricted parking lots and spaces. Visitors are prohibited from parking in 24-hour reserved and service vehicle spaces at all times. 

Visitors who receive notice of a parking violation for "Lacks Valid Permit" may have the fine excused by coming to the Department of Public Safety with a photo ID and a copy of the vehicle registration and establishing their visitor status (copies will be accepted through the mail). During any year, the department will excuse no more than one such violation notice. 

Public off-street parking is available at the Newark Parking Authority. For further information call the Authority at 366-7154.
