Parking permit requirements will resume at Stanford's main campus and Stanford Redwood City as of Wednesday, July 1. Commuters and residents will be required to have a valid ‘A,’ ‘C,’ ‘Z,’ ‘C-SRWC,’ ‘MC,’ or resident parking permit to avoid citations. Please refer to our announcement for more details.

While parking permit requirements resumed at Stanford's main campus and Stanford Redwood City as of Wednesday, July 1, we are unable to offer the Clean Air Cash and Carpool permit programs at this time.
Stanford's commute incentive program is intended to encourage eligible commuters to choose a sustainable commute instead of driving alone. While telecommuting helps to reduce trips and emissions, the program is not intended to provide incentives for full-time telecommuting. Since we do not have a way to determine levels of telecommuting among tens of thousands of individual Stanford commuters, we are unable to reinstate the Clean Air Cash and Carpool permit programs at this time.
We have, however, continued to offer free transit passes for eligible commuters and Scoop carpooling app subsidies for riders and drivers. To learn more about the return of parking permit requirements and your commute options as you return to campus, please refer to our Returning to Your Stanford commute page.
All carpool permits have been returned, carpool groups closed, and carpool members unenrolled from the carpool program. Former carpoolers must purchase a commuter permit as of July 1, if they intend to drive to campus.
You may informally share the cost of commuter permits and expenses, but free or reduced-cost permits and reserved carpool spaces will not be available.
Scoop carpool app
The Scoop carpooling app continues to be available and Stanford continues to subsidize eligible riders and drivers who use Scoop for their Stanford commute. Scoop has updated its health and safety guidelines, which involve changes to the in-car experience in order to decrease the risk of potential exposure and comply with public health recommendations from the CDC and the WHO.
We are developing updated processes for our vanpool program and will follow up with vanpools directly.
Vanpools should contact us at commuteclub@stanford.edu or 650.736.9923 for assistance if needed.
