Parking for Contractors

For parking purposes, a contractor is defined as any external company that provides construction, construction-related maintenance and repair, or utility infrastructure services to UC San Diego.

Contractors who must park on university property while performing these services may choose from several parking options, depending on the size and duration of the job. See visitor parking for daily and hourly options.

  • Valid in D, B, A and V spaces
  • Usually limited to 1–3 permits per project
