Starting this summer, Central Washington University will be making the switch to virtual parking passes, and vehicle hangtags will no longer be used. Parking Services will monitor campus parking lots using a virtual system based on your license plate.

Going virtual will support the university's sustainability efforts by removing the need to purchase annual plastic hangtags that end up in the landfill. Virtual passes will also make parking verification faster and easier.

More information will be available in early May when a formal announcement is made. In the meantime, bookmark the Parking Services website and check back soon for future updates.
