Ed-Pass
Your University of Nevada, Reno ID, the WolfCard, is now your key to free transportation! The Ed-Pass program is a partnership with RTC of Washoe County. Beginning July 1, 2019, University of Nevada, Reno students, faculty and staff can use their WolfCard to ride any route for free. Travel to Midtown, Downtown and around town with the Ed-Pass.
Bicycling to campus
In order to provide sufficient parking for bicycles, all bicycles must display an annual bicycle parking permit. These permits are free and may be obtained on our website or at the Parking and Transportation Services office located off of 16th Street.
When parking your bicycle on campus, please be sure to use a campus bike rack or bike locker. It is necessary to enforce this policy to abide by campus safety and ADA regulations. Bicycles may not be parked in pedestrian access routes or chained to any object other than a bike rack.
Electric vehicle charging stations
Electric Vehicle Charging Stations are located on level three of the Brian J. Whalen Parking Complex, level three of the West Stadium Parking Complex, and level four of the Gateway Parking Complex. A current University parking permit, excluding the Circus Circus permit, must be displayed in order to use these stations. Additionally, a charging station is located in the ADA access spaces on level 4 of the Gateway Parking Complex, which requires a valid state-issued ADA placard or permanent plates to be displayed along with a valid ADA University parking permit. An active ChargePoint account is also required as the user will be charged directly for charging. The maximum time limit to park in these spaces is four hours. After the four-hour maximum charging time, the vehicle must be moved to the authorized zone designated on the University parking permit.
Carpooling
Enjoy the company and conversation you get while carpooling, and your wallet will thank you for saving money minimizing fuel, maintenance and repair bills.
Designated carpool spaces are in the Green, Silver 17 and Silver 11 zones. Please contact our office to ask about carpool permit availability.
Walking / drop off

Each step saves you money, contributes to your health and eliminates the stress of trying to find a parking space. Say good-bye to the woes of traffic and searching for parking, and say hello to your new favorite time of day.
