Parking in an illegal or unsafe manner at any time is prohibited and may result in citations and/or impoundment. Excessive fines, blocking traffic, fire lane violations or similar situations may result in the towing of such vehicle to an off campus impound lot.

For impounded vehicles, please contact TPS Customer Relations at 706-542-7275 or the UGA Police Department at 706-542-2200.
