Parking Policies and Procedures

Individual Vanderbilt Kennedy Center research projects may purchase a parking space on an annual basis from Vanderbilt Traffic and Parking (322-2554, Wesley Place Garage, 2043 Scarritt Place) for purposes of allowing research participants to park when they come to campus to take part in research.

A sign indicates that a specific space is reserved for that project's participants. Only that project's participants may park in that space. Participants who park in that space must have a parking placard placed on the left front dashboard or a sticker placed on the left of the back windshield.

The Vanderbilt Kennedy Center has a few spaces reserved for research on Magnolia Circle adjacent to the OMC Building and the Hobbs Building. If a Kennedy Center research project needs parking for research participants too infrequently to merit purchasing a space annually, the Kennedy Center research space may be reserved by contacting vkcfacilities@vanderbilt.edu or (615) 322-8146.

To tow a car that is improperly parked in a reserved space, call Traffic & Parking, (615) 322-2554. Also ask the VKC Coordinator of Space and Facilities at (615) 322-8146 to send an email announcement to OMC Building occupants that a car (provide description) has been reported for towing.
