CRC/BUMC Reciprocal Parking Privileges
Boston University’s Charles River (CRC) and Medical (BUMC) Campuses have a reciprocal parking arrangement for employees that allows CRC permit holders to park at the BUMC and BUMC permit holders to park at the CRC.
Parking for CRC Employees at BUMC
The following active Charles River Campus Permit types are eligible for Reciprocal Parking Privileges in the 710 Albany Street Garage (no more than 3 days/week):
- Commuter Permit (formerly the Green Permit)
- 24/7 Permit (formerly the Brown Permit)
- Yellow Permit
- Contractor/Vendor Permit
BUMC Reciprocal Parking Process:
- When arriving at the 710 Albany St Garage, take a ticket at the entry gate
- Park your vehicle and take your ticket with you
- Before leaving, take the ticket to the BUMC-BMC Parking & Transportation Services office, 710 Albany Street, for ticket validation. Please be patient while PTS staff inspect your BU ID, verify that you hold a CRC Parking Permit (permits are not transferable), and validate your parking ticket.
- Insert the validated, no charge ticket into the parking kiosk at the exit gate. No payment should be required.
Note: verification of BUMC Reciprocal Parking eligibility is only offered Monday-Friday, 7am-5pm. Those who are unable to get their tickets validated during these hours will be required to pay full-price for parking. No refunds will be issued for weekend parking or those who do not get their tickets validated during business hours.
