Parking at Stanford
Although we recommend using sustainable transportation, we understand it’s not viable for everyone. You will need to purchase a parking permit or pay for visitor parking. Where you park and how you pay depend on your affiliation.

Getting Around the Bay
Traveling around the Bay is easy Even if you’ve come to Stanford without a car. Thanks to a host of convenient on-campus services, access to a vehicle, emergency ride, or other means of transportation is always available when needed.
