Parking

Our office will be closed on Jan. 18 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day; 24/7 parking enforcement continues; limited Marguerite and transit service

Visit our Parking Enforcement Continues on Martin Luther King Jr. Day article for details on parking enforcement and Marguerite and transit service.

Commuters

Stanford offers great incentives for using sustainable transportation on a part-time or full-time basis. Consider biking, taking transit, walking, carpooling, or vanpooling to reduce the financial and environmental costs of driving alone--not to mention the challenge of finding parking!
