Visitor Parking

Staff can book short-term parking for professional visitors here.

Parking facilities at York St John University are for the use of permit holders and booked visitors only.

Parking in unauthorised areas or without a permit presents a clear health and safety risk on our sites, and prevents legitimate permit holders and booked visitors from parking.

In order to ensure that legitimate users are not disadvantaged, the University has chosen to operate a system of Civil Parking Charges rather than vehicle clamping.

A Civil Parking Charge is a legally enforceable charge made against car park users who knowingly breach an agreement to park in accordance with the stated rules of the site.   The charge for all of our parking sites is £50 if paid within 14 days, but increases if unpaid.   All users will always receive an initial warning as per the University’s Parking Policy (12/13), and in the event of receiving a Civil Parking Charge, have the right of appeal, during which time their right to pay at the lower rate of £50 is preserved.

Issuing these charges may involve seeking details of the registered keeper from the DVLA.  Therefore, while any notices will always be issued by our own Security Team, the back office process will be managed by an external partner (The Car Parking Partnership) under license to the DVLA and according to the guidelines of the British Parking Association.
