Access UNLV Park & Go to search for parking on campus, better understand parking rules, and make the best informed decisions.

The University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), recognized among the nation's top research universities, has partnered with Modii to implement a mobility platform to enhance the parking experience on its campuses.

UNLV Park & Go provides an innovative solution that will allow students, faculty, staff, and visitors to find parking spaces in garages faster than ever before. Accessible from a smartphone and desktop, users can personalize their view of the Maryland and Shadow Lane campus maps specific to their parking needs - whether they are searching for student parking, staff, reserved, resident, and more.

Users can see a live occupancy percentage for high-demand parking garages before coming to campus. To align with UNLV’s commitment to sustainability, UNLV Park & Go also displays the locations and live availability of electric vehicle charging stations. It easily displays mobile payment codes for visitors utilizing short-term parking.

What did the University of Nevada, Las Vegas state when asked about the parking and mobility problems on the UNLV campus prior to Modii’s implementation?

“Educating especially new staff, students, and visitors about the services we provide often posed a challenge. Although the necessary information could be found on our website, the granular information that Modii can display will definitely help increase the level of service we offer. Coupled with the integrations Modii has with other vendors in the parking industry, we are able to provide the campus community with a "one-stop shop" mobility platform with customizable parking options.”

From your perspective, how will UNLV Park & Go benefit students and all drivers on campus?

“Showing students where their parking permit allows them to park around campus will be a big benefit. For example, many students don't realize that they can park in most staff parking areas after 5 p.m. UNLV Park & Go will clearly show which parking areas their permit allows them to park and hopefully increase their awareness of their parking options.  It also easily displays mobile payment codes for visitors utilizing short-term parking.”

A key benefit of the UNLV Park & Go is reducing congestion during games and other events on campus. By providing real-time information on available parking garages, drivers know to avoid heavily congested areas and instead find parking in less crowded areas.

What is your favorite function of the UNLV Park & Go, and why?

“The digital mapping of UNLV's parking inventory is great. From notifying customers where open EV charging stations currently are, to how full our garages are at any given time, the information that UNLV Park & Go is able to offer is very beneficial and will enhance the parking experience for many students, faculty, staff, and visitors at our campuses.”

UNLV Park & Go, powered by Modii, is the perfect tool for anyone who visits UNLV’s Maryland or Shadow Lane campuses and needs to know the best places to park or better understand parking regulations. If you’re visiting the campus, be sure to check out UNLV Park & Go – it’s the smart way to park!
