Main campus parking enforcement includes nights and weekends; Courtesy 'After-Hours' permits available for Stanford affiliates

To support campus health and safety and more effectively manage external visitors, as of Nov. 2, parking enforcement on Stanford’s main campus was extended to include nights and weekends. Stanford affiliates can continue to park after hours at no additional charge, either with an existing permit or by registering their vehicle for a Courtesy ‘After-Hours’ permit.
