  • In order to qualify for a UW disability parking permit, an individual must first obtain either a state or city disability placard. We always recommend obtaining the state placard as the city disability placard can only be used with the Laramie City limits. A State of Wyoming disability placard can be obtained by following the steps located on the Wyoming Department of Transportation website. A City of Laramie disability placard may be obtained by contacting the City Manager’s Office. Please note that Transportation Services also accepts state disability placards from any US state. 

 

  • Order your UW parking permit either online or in-person at 1602 E. Spring Creek. Select the disability parking permit for the “zone” that you will most often frequent. 

 

  • Provide a copy of your state or city disability placard to Transportation Services by one of the following methods:

 

      1. Stop into the Transportation Services office located at 1602 E. Spring Creek.
        (You may also order your permit at the same time.)
      2. Email a scanned copy to tps@uwyo.edu.
      3. Mail a copy to UW Transportation Services, 1000 E. University Ave. Dept 4313, Laramie WY 82071.

 

Do not hesitate to reach out to the Transportation Services office if you need any help with this process.  We can be reached at 307-766-9800 or tps@uwyo.edu.
