After nearly two years of construction, Penn State will officially open a new parking deck on west campus, aptly named the West Deck, at 6 a.m. on Monday, May 10.
The new deck, located along White Course Drive between the Earth and Engineering Sciences Building and White Course Apartments, is open for both permit holders and visitors. Permit holders can check if they’re applicable through
information included in this press release, while visitor parking is available for $1 an hour with a $12 maximum daily fee.
The six-level parking deck holds 1,651 parking spaces. The first level features an 8-foot, 3-inch clearance that can accommodate larger vehicles and 28 Americans with Disabilities Act-accessible spaces. Level two, meanwhile, boasts five electric vehicle charging plugs, and 13 more spaces have been “prepped” for potential installation of more plugs in the future.
