To support ongoing maintenance and improvement activities for the parking area, WVU Parking Management will begin charging $1 to park in the Coliseum parking lot beginning Wednesday. Payment will be required and applied between 8am and 4pm Monday to Friday.
The $1 fee is good for the length of time drivers park in the same spot each day within the Coliseum lot. However, drivers will be responsible for paying an additional $1 each time they leave and return to parking in the Coliseum lot within the same day.
Parking fees will be used to pay for a portion of the recent paving of the lot, as well as improved lighting in the area that was installed in 2021. The money will also be used for ongoing maintenance of the lot to ensure a quality experience parking for students, faculty, staff and campus visitors.
To pay for parking in the Coliseum lot, drivers must use the ParkMobile app, which charges a fee of 25 cents for each transaction in addition to the $1 fee. Pay stations will not be available in the Coliseum section. Drivers must download the ParkMobile app from the App Store or Google Play and enter their space number at the Coliseum lot to complete payment.
The Coliseum parking lot will continue to be used for WVU Athletics game day parking. During these times, the area may be closed or parking may be limited.
A limited number of student parking permits and employee parking permits are available for purchase on the Parking Portal.
WVU also offers a variety of free transportation options for students, faculty and staff to help them navigate campus and the surrounding Morgantown area, including Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) and Mountain Line buses.
