Keep these statuses and closures in mind as you navigate campus.
BONUS DAY STATUS IN LOT D
8/12/26 | Due to construction and high volume of reserved event parking, there will be no bonus parking in Lot D.
Parking and Transit Services appreciates the collaboration with the CEC, Strauss, and Criss Library leadership and operations teams to make this option available to our campus community when demand for reserved visitor event parking is low.
"Bonus Days" are not guaranteed, and the daily availability of this lot is dependent upon campus events.
On “Bonus Days,” the University Drive North gates to lot D will be opened at 7 A.M. for any vehicle with a valid UNO parking permit to park. A sign is placed at the gate entrance to indicate if it is a "Bonus Day."
On “Bonus Days,” the gates to lot D will be closed at 1 P.M. to prepare the lot for evening events starting after 5 P.M. Vehicles will still be able to exit via the lot E booth exit after 1 P.M. The sign at the gate will be changed to indicate the lot is reserved at 1 P.M.
Parking and Transit Services will update the status each day around 4 P.M. on the Parking Lot and Road Closure webpage.
