Inclement Weather Policy

When a decision is made to close the campus due to a snow emergency, parking will be prohibited on interior campus roadways, including Park Road, Back Road, Center Road, Poplar Avenue and Walker Avenue. Parking will also be prohibited on the top level of all parking garages and decks, and on the center ramp in Walker Garage. Vehicles should be relocated to Lots 3, 23, 24, Stadium Lot, or the middle and lower levels of Walker Avenue, Commons and Administrative Garages. See our campus parking map for the parking lot locations. Failure to remove a vehicle may result in a citation and/or towing at the owner’s expense.

Clearing the elevated parking deck of Administration Drive Garage (Visitor Parking) is problematic under freezing weather conditions, so please advise your guests of alternative parking in Commons Garage. If the Administration Drive Garage upper deck is closed, minimal Accessible parking spaces will remain available.

For more information, please view the UMBC snow removal plan: a campus map showing the approach to clearing campus roadways, parking lots, and walkways. Information about parking during snow and ice removal can be found at: parking.umbc.edu.
