Advantages:

- Participants can divide the cost of the Carpool Permit
- Provides an opportunity to socialize with colleagues or fellow students
- Reduces carbon emissions
- Reduces fossil fuel consumption

To qualify for a carpooling parking permit, there must be a minimum of three participants. Students must be registered full time with BCA, and faculty or staff must be full-time employees.
Carpool participants must arrive on campus together in one vehicle, and park at the designated carpool parking spaces.
Carpool parking spaces are located in the various parking lots and are identified by carpooling signage. The number of permits is limited and the location of parking spaces may change based on demand.
Carpool spaces will be monitored and enforced by Security Services to ensure the integrity of the program. A valid carpool parking permit must be displayed on the rear-view mirror and is only valid for the carpool spaces in the lot assigned. Only one permit per carpool is issued.
