Reserved lots are enforced 7:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday – Friday (with the exception of 24-hour reserved spaces). Reserved permit holders can park in any assigned Tier lot, lesser Tier lot or general FS lot if they need to park somewhere other than the Tiered lot of their choice. (For example, with a Tier 1 assignment you can park in any Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3, or general FS parking lots.) No parking in visitor lots at any time.
The gated entrance for the Tier 1 section of the Frog Alley Parking Garage is accessed from the west side of the garage on Frog Alley. Please Note: Entry is not available to the Tier section from the visitor entrance located off Stadium Drive.
Please Note: Effective immediately the reserved spaces in the Tom Brown Pete Wright parking lot are no longer part of the Tier system. It is now an assigned reserved section and is only available to the Faculty and Staff that have been assigned to those spaces.
Parking is allowed in any white-lined space campus-wide (including visitor spaces), any state marked handicapped space, and time-limited spaces. Do not park in reserved, loading docks, fire lanes, etc.
Only vehicles with federal or state handicap license plates or placards (hang tags) may park in designated handicap spaces. TCU Police reserves the right to inquire as to the rightful owner of disabled placards or license plates and to request proof of ownership if deemed necessary. A special TCU handicap permit (DP) is available to students, faculty, and staff who have handicap plates or placards. A copy of the placard/ license plate number and driver license must be on file. Students, faculty, and staff with a federal or state temporary handicap placard (placards issued for up to 6 months and with most states red in color) will be issued a standard permit based on their housing or their employee parking assignment.
Important notice to DV plate holders:
SB 792 – Disabled Veteran Plates and Parking Privileges
As of January 1, 2022, anyone parking in a disabled parking space must have a disabled person license plate or a disabled parking placard that features the International Symbol of Access (ISA). Currently, disabled veteran license plates do not feature the ISA.
Texans with disabled veteran license plates wishing to use disabled parking spaces in 2022 may apply for a disabled parking placard or for a new disabled veteran license plate featuring the ISA. The veteran must meet the eligibility requirements for a disabled parking placard or disabled person license plate featuring the ISA. Not all disabilities that qualify a veteran for disabled veteran license plates will qualify a veteran for a disabled veteran license plate featuring the ISA.

Bicycle permits are required. Bicycles should ONLY be secured at bicycle racks. Bicycles secured to fences, railings, landscape or anything other than a bicycle rack may be confiscated. Bicycle permits do not expire and there is no cost for the permit.
Students operating non-motorized or electric scooters, skateboards, or other similar devices are required to register for a permit and exercise extreme caution, being mindful of the pedestrian and vehicle traffic on campus. These devices are to be treated with the same rules as a bicycle. They are not allowed to be left unattended or stored in areas, such as hallways outside of classrooms or dorm rooms, walkways intended for pedestrian traffic, or other common areas of campus buildings. Devices found in these areas may be confiscated and brought to the TCU Police Department.
We recommend securing these devices when possible to a bicycle rack utilizing a secure “U-lock” style lock with a solid shackle.
