Fortunately, parking savings are available for occasional transit users. UVA offers prorated Occasional Parker Permits, allowing employees to park at work 10 days per month. Similarly, commuters traveling downtown can take advantage of Discounted Daily Parking coupons offered by the Lanier Parking Office downtown.
