University Event Parking To Go Cashless Beginning Dec. 6

Starting on Tuesday, Dec. 6, when the Syracuse University men’s basketball team hosts Oakland University, fans will no longer need cash to pay for parking at campus events. The University’s Parking and Transportation Services department has transitioned to a cashless payment model in all University-owned lots and garages.

Accepted forms of payment include all major credit cards, as well as Google Pay and Apple Pay. The transition follows the move to cashless payment options within the JMA Wireless Dome, which took place in the fall of 2021.

The change will also affect the University’s Syracuse Stage lot on Irving Avenue. Stage visitors will first encounter the new system on Wednesday, Dec. 7, during that day’s showings of “Disney’s The Little Mermaid.”

Blue Trolley Loop for Monday, November 14

The  Blue Trolley Loop will be out of service until 2:20 pm today,  however, the Orange Trolley Loop will be operating.

We apologize for any inconvenience.  Any questions, please call Parking and Transportation at 315.443.4652 during business hours.

Syracuse University to Assume Management of Marshall Square Mall Parking Lot

Beginning on Monday, August 22, the Syracuse University Parking and Transportation Services Office will assume management of the Marshall Square Mall parking lot located on East Adams Street. The lot, previously owned by the city of Syracuse, will become the University’s first mobile pay parking area.

Between August 22 and 29, the lot will be free and open to the public for use during Syracuse Welcome and Fall 2022 move-in. On Monday, August 29, the lot will become a 24-hour pay lot. Those parking in the lot will need to follow directions posted on the lot signage in order to submit payment electronically – customers will be able to text a short number, scan a QR code, or type an address into their phone’s web browser in order to access the payment website. As the payment is mobile-based, customers will have the option of continuing to add time to their virtual meter through their phones.

All drivers, including those with Syracuse University parking passes, will need to pay when utilizing the lot. Parking is available in four-hour increments. Enforcement will be provided by Parking and Transportation Services.
