Carpool

The first step to receiving a UF Carpool permit is to fill out and print the Carpool permit application and bring it to the Transportation and Parking Services Customer Relations Office. Both primary members of the prospective Carpool group must come to the office in order to purchase their permits.

Carpool groups consist of two (2) registered members (additional riders are welcome and strongly encouraged, but only two will be registered members). Both registered members must be full time, benefits-eligible UF or UF Health employees. Both are required to work compatible day-shift schedules on the main campus and live along a reasonable commuting path. The primary, registered Carpool members must commit to riding together on a majority of days during the permit year.

Carpool permits are not transferable among program members. 

Individuals falsely participating in the Carpool Program shall be subject to a $150 fine, plus the cost of the equivalent parking decal for False Registration, vehicle impoundment and loss of Carpool parking privileges for the remainder of the current permit year and the following permit year. Creating a Carpool group which does not result in members actually riding together on a majority of days during the permit year will result in a citation for False Registration upon discovery.

TAPS welcomes participation in the Carpool Program by individuals who comply with the spirit and the intent of the program. If you are unable to observe the rules, please explore other commuting alternatives in order to avoid fines and penalties.
