What is an ePermit?

An ePermit is an electronic parking permit authorizing your registered vehicle to park on campus. The advantages of an ePermit are you do not need to remember to transfer a physical permit to the vehicle you are driving that day, you can’t lose it, it can’t be stolen, and it can’t be damaged. Just remember to park only one registered vehicle on campus at a time.

Will I get a parking permit to put on my windshield?

The UA no longer issues physical parking permits other than to scooters, motorcycles, and bicycles. Students, faculty, and staff register their vehicle on My Parking Account (https://myparkingaccount.uark.edu) using their vehicle license number (VLN). The LPR system tracks the VLN so the patrol staff know where the vehicle should be parked.

QUESTIONS ABOUT RESIDENT RESERVED PARKING Students living on campus may be put on the Resident Reserved Parking List by checking “Yes” on their housing contract. You may confirm that you checked yes by logging into the Housing Portal located on the University Housing Web site, https://campushousing.uark.edu/StarRezPortal/ (may be unavailable after cut-off date). Please understand that the demand for Resident Reserved parking spaces is high and signing up on the Resident Reserved parking list does not guarantee that you will be offered Resident Reserved Parking for the 2017-2018 academic year. University Housing will send the list to Transit and Parking by August 1, 2017. When you are eligible to purchase a Resident Reserved Permit you will be notified by Transit and Parking via your University of Arkansas e-mail account. Resident Reserved permits are offered first to returning students and then based on remaining availability to new students. Offers are based first on the parking zone in which a student lives, then on the number of points they have for living on campus, and finally by the date they sign up. Because parking enforcement is ongoing throughout the year, it will be necessary for vehicles to have a current ePermit to avoid receiving parking citations during the time Resident Reserved parking assignments are being made. If you haven’t received a Resident Reserved ePermit before you arrive on campus, a general student ePermit should be purchased. The purchase cost of the student permit will be deducted from the purchase price of the Resident Reserved permit when an approved applicant purchases his/her Resident Reserved parking permit. If you have questions about the location, enforcement, or maintenance of Resident Reserved parking lots or how you may purchase your ePermit once it has been assigned, please contact the Transit and Parking Department at 575-PARK or email parking@uark.edu.

ADA Accessible Parking and Transportation Information

Razorback Transit Paratransit Services

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, public transit agencies like Razorback Transitare required to provide curb-to-curb, demand-responsive paratransit service that"mirrors" their fixed-route bus service (in terms of service times and areas). Theservice is a "safety net", and is only for those persons who do not have the functionalcapability to access the fixed route bus system.

While Razorback Paratransit’s base mode of service is curb-to-curb, assistance beyondthe curb may be available. Please contact Razorback Paratransit for additionalinformation.

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act, disability alone does not qualify a person toride paratransit. A person must be functionally unable to use the fixed-route busservice. Paratransit service is provided to the following three general groups of personswith disabilities:

Persons who have specific impairment-related conditions which make it impossible,not just difficult or inconvenient, to travel to or from the bus stop.

Persons who need a wheelchair lift and a wheelchair lift-equipped bus is unable todeploy its lift in a particular location due to physical constraints of that particularbus stop.

Persons who are unable to board, ride, exit or otherwise navigate the fixed routebus system, even if they are able to get to a bus stop.

To be eligible for paratransit van service, one must complete an application for ADA certification. Eligibility applications are reviewed by the Logistics Manager in charge of Paratransit Services. General approval and considerations for trip requests are approved on a trip by trip basis.

Applications and all information for paratransit service may be obtained by calling Razorback Paratransit at 575-6993 and speaking with the Logistics Manager in charge of Paratransit Services.

For more detailed information, please visit the Paratransit website at http://parking.uark.edu/transit-services/paratransit.php.

Scooters, Mopeds, Etc. in Arkansas

When determining where a moped or scooter falls under Arkansas law, it

basically comes down to engine displacement. If a vehicle has an engine

displacement of 250 cubic centimeters (cc) or greater, has a seat or saddle

meant for riding, and is designed to travel with three or fewer vehicles on the

ground, it's considered a motorcycle. If it has less than 250 cc, but fits the

other criteria, it's considered a motor-driven cycle. If it has less than 50 cc,

and has an automatic transmission, it's classified as a motorized bicycle.

Motor-Driven Cycles

For the most part, the registration and licensing procedures concerning a motor-driven cycle are the same as

those for other vehicles. You can drive a motor-driven cycle if you are at least 14. If you're under 16, though,

you'll need to have an MD driver's license. This is a restricted license. You may obtain one by passing the

required vision, knowledge, and skills tests. If you've passed the Motorcycle Safety Foundation Riders Course

within 90 days of your MD license application, you don't need to take the skills test.

Motorized Bicycles

To operate a motorized bicycle, you'll need to be at least 10 years old and have a Motorized Bicycle

Certificate. (You don't need to have this certificate if you already have a Class A, B, C, D, M, or MD license,

or an Intermediate or Learner's permit.) To obtain this restricted certificate, you'll need to pass the vision,

knowledge, and skills test. If you've passed the Motorcycle Safety Foundation Riders Course within 90 days

of your MD license application, you won't need to take the skills test.

Special Rules

Riders of any of these types of vehicles must obey the same traffic laws as other drivers. However, there are

special rules to follow, too. Remember to always turn on your lights, even in the blazing sun of an Arkansas

summer. Everyone riding on the bike must protect their eyes with goggles, protective glasses, or a

transparent face shield. Additionally, if you're under 21, you'll be required to wear a helmet. You may carry

one passenger on your bike, if there are footrests and handholds for the passenger. If you're under 16,

though, you'll have to ride alone. Fayetteville City ordinance requires insurance on all scooters.
