About Us

Our Services

Parking enforcement officers enhance safety by:

  • Patrolling parking lots and structures daily

  • Keeping traffic lanes, driveways and emergency accesses open for medical, fire and police response units
  • Assisting motorists with jumpstarts, lost cars, wayfinding and more
Our Approach

We aim to provide a friendly, safe and secure campus experience for the U-M community through assisting with parking, keeping traffic lanes and emergency accesses open and more.

Parking Resources

Paying and appealing parking tickets is handled by the city of Ann Arbor. As such, the resource links will take you to external sites.

If you must drive, please adhere to U-M’s parking regulations (full descriptions can be found in the Regents’ Ordinance), which are designed to ensure public safety and to help manage our limited parking resources. Violating these regulations may result in a citation.

  • Pay a Ticket

    U-M uses Passport to power and manage parking enforcement, mobile pay parking, digital permits, payments, and more.
