Resident Student Parking Information

Leaving your car at home won't leave you stranded. Before purchasing a parking permit, consider these transportation options available to you:

  • Campus Shuttle - The Eagle Run shuttle gets you around campus and town. Stops include Wal-Mart, Wegman's, the central business district of Brockport, Brockport Crossings, and College Suites. This shuttle also services the airport, Amtrak, and Trailways hubs in the Rochester area during semester breaks.
  • Brockport's Fast TRAX - This free bike borrowing program allows students to borrow a bike from one of the four hub locations on campus for a 24-hour period. This is a great way to run errands or get exercise. Long-term bike borrowing is available for a nominal fee.
  • Rideshare - This free online tool helps match riders and drivers from similar areas traveling to the same destination. 
  • Public Transportation - The Rochester Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RGRTA) has several routes between Brockport and the surrounding areas. Bus passes are available for purchase at the BASC Business Office located on the first floor of Brockway Hall.
  • Hertz on Demand  - Two vehicles are available on campus for students to rent for errands and short trips. Students will need to be a member of the Hertz on Demand program to take advantage of this option. Membership is free.
  • Taxi on Demand - This is a pre-paid card that can be used to call and pay for a taxi when it's not convenient or safe to drive or walk. It's accepted by thousands of cab companies nationwide, and by four cab companies in the Brockport/Rochester area.
