The Benefits of USM Economy Lots
When you park in an Economy Lot, the USM Transit Service will pick you up and drop you off at any of the 14 stops in and around campus. If you have a bicycle or electric scooter, park in Economy and then ride to the heart of campus, dorms or support buildings. It’s affordable, it’s healthy, it’s easy and it helps the environment. This Fall, Save Money and GO GREEN and GOLD! Call Parking and Transit Services for more information.
