Please review the following alert from Tulane University Facilities Services. Please note that some of the fifth floor of the Tidewater Garage will be unavailable for parking as fireproofing is installed. This work is expected to take place from Monday, Oct. 14 until Sunday, Oct. 20.

  • Location: Tidewater Building, Seventh-Floor Plant and Parking Garage
  • Start: Monday, Oct. 14 at 7 a.m.
  • End: Sunday, Oct. 20 at 5 p.m.
  • Purpose: To install fireproofing on the new steel beams in preparation for the new air-cooled chiller and generator.
  • Impact: There will be no shutdowns associated with this work. Occupants of the building may see the team as they make their way to the seventh-floor plant and the parking garage.

The Tulane Green Wave football team will host a home game against South Florida at Yulman Stadium on Saturday, Sept. 28 at 11 a.m. All parking spaces will be used for fan parking on game day except for designated student resident parking areas.
 
Students with residential parking permits must park on the top two floors (fifth and sixth floors) of the Diboll Parking Garage. Residential students are required to move their vehicles before 10 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 27. 
 
Anyone parked on the uptown campus, who is not a student with a residential parking permit, is required to park off site by 10 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 27. Regular parking operations will resume two hours after the end of the game on Saturday, Sept. 28. This two-hour window will allow fans to leave campus safely and mitigate any traffic problems. 
 
We ask for your continued cooperation in helping us avoid having to tow vehicles. Any vehicles parked in violation of game day restrictions after 10 p.m. Friday, Sept. 27 will be ticketed and relocated to University Square.  

Parking Services is extending the time frame to remove vehicles from the Lasalle and Saratoga Garages to 4 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 13. Any vehicle in these garages after 4 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 13 will have to pay to exit the garages. 

Tulane Parking Services has activated Restricted Mode parking in the Diboll Parking Garage on the uptown campus to allow us to accommodate our parking permit holders while also ensuring the safety of our community during the upcoming severe weather forecast. Campus will close today, Tuesday, September 10 at 5 p.m. Entry to the Diboll Parking Garage will no longer be allowed at that time until the university re-opens.      

Restricted Mode on the uptown campus allows Diboll Parking Garage access only to faculty, staff, and students with annual uptown permits.      


During Restricted Mode, the following policies are in place and enforced by the Tulane University Police Department and Parking Services personnel:     

  • Only Tulane staff, faculty, and students with a current annual uptown campus parking permit will be allowed access into the garage based on availability. Contractors or affiliates with parking permits will not be allowed access. 
  • To access the Diboll Parking Garage during Restricted Mode, be prepared to show your Splash Card so that Parking Services and TUPD may grant access into the garage.
  • Purchase of an uptown campus annual permit does not guarantee a parking space in the Diboll Parking Garage during Restricted Mode. 
  • Parking will not be allowed on the ground floor. Spaces on the fifth floor up-ramp to the rooftop, and sixth floor rooftop of the garage are reserved for university essential personnel only. 

 
Uptown parking options for non-permit holders:     

  • Tulane downtown garages will not be accessible for uptown permit and non-permit holders. 
  • The LaSalle and Saratoga Garages will offer parking at no charge to Tulane affiliates starting today, Sept. 10 at 1 p.m. through Thursday, Sept. 12 at 4 p.m. Anyone parked in the garage after 4 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 12 will need to pay to exit the garage. Tulane shuttles will operate the Commons Green Line and the Green Wave Line between the uptown and downtown campuses today until 6 p.m. Please check the schedule times and pickup locations at shuttles.tulane.edu.
  • The Lasalle Garage is located on Lasalle Street at Tulane Avenue. The Saratoga Garage is on S. Saratoga Street between Cleveland Avenue and Canal Street.  

Thank you for your cooperation,
