In an effort to simplify the parking system on campus and clarify the restrictions in place, parking services has undertaken a parking sign facelift project this summer. The signs, designed in a Lean Kaizen event over the 2016-17 winter term, were tested in selected locations on campus during spring semester and resulted in fewer parking violations and appeals in those locations.

The signs (shown below) indicate when a Miami University parking permit is required, and which permits are recognized in the parking lot at different times.

Examples of revised parking restriction signs.

The updated signs are NOT changes to the existing restrictions; changes to parking restrictions are indicated by orange flags on signs to draw motorists’ attention.

Parking services anticipates updating all parking restriction signs on campus before the beginning of the fall semester.
