ParkMobile on ISU Campus

 

parkmobile

Some areas on campus including the large pre-pay lots by Lied Recreation Center, East Campus Parking Deck and Lot 21 by the Armory have switched to cashless payments only through ParkMobile. ParkMobile can be used to pay for meters on ISU campus and in the City of Ames. Some single space meters still allow cash and smart card payment. 

Free Bicycle Registration

Riding your bike can be a great way to get from one side of campus to another.
