Contractor Parking Request Form

Contractor Parking & Permit Policy: 

All contractors performing work on the university campus are required to obtain proper parking credentials through the Parking & Transportation Services office. If a contractor would like to request access to a specific lot and/or space within a given lot, they must coordinate with their LSU Project Manager or point of contact, and Parking & Transportation Services. All contractor vehicles on campus must be registered with Parking & Transportation Services, and must provide an up-to-date vehicle make, model, color, and license plate number.  Contractors with a valid parking pass must request access to a specific lot. Contractors will be granted access only to their approved lot. 

Contractor Parking Privileges:

Parking within C reserved lots or B Central areas is granted to outside entities only on an as-needed basis. There is too great of a demand from LSU staff/faculty to allow for outside companies/individuals to have reserved parking for convenience only.
