Parking and Transit for Fall 2026

If you don't need to park on campus each day but want to guarantee parking, consider a daily parking reservation
Student parking permits for UWM’s main campus are currently sold out. Cambridge, Kenilworth, and RiverView garages are also sold out.
Most commuter students can register for a free parking permit at U-PARK located at Capitol & Humboldt.  U-PARK has shuttles running every 10 minutes during the day to main campus.
Students can also register for a free student bus pass, or U-PASS, that can be used on any Milwaukee County Transit System bus, including several park and lot rides throughout Milwaukee county.

Blue bike share station with several bikes parked next to sidewalk where one person walks and one person rides a bike on the UW- Milwaukee campus.

UWM Transportation Services’ mission is to provide various transportation solutions that serve all modes of transportation within the UWM community while supporting the mission of education and research.  We coordinate and administer all transportation-related services on campus, serving a diverse range of needs and focusing on reducing overall parking demand. The goal is to offer multiple travel choices, enhance multi-modal connectivity, and shift emphasis away from single-occupancy vehicle use.
