Parking payment process

When entering the parking garage, you have to stop and push the button on the machine to get a ticket.

When you are ready to exit the garage you can pay one of two ways : 

• Pay at the ticket kiosks by the elevators just before returning to your car
• Bring your ticket with you that you received when you arrived - do not leave it in the car
• Pay at the gate when driving out of the garage
• Stop your car and scan the ticket at the gate

If you need help getting a ticket when you arrive, with the kiosks, or paying at the exit gate, use the intercom buttons on the machines to call an attendant. Parking personnel are available Monday through Friday until 6PM.
