Parking policy

As part of our vision on mobility and accessibility on the campus, TU Delft is working towards parking regulations. These regulations will apply to a large part of the campus: the parking location at the Faculty of Architecture and the area between Jaffalaan / Rotterdamseweg / Heertjeslaan / Huismansingel / Schoemakerstraat. The new parking policy is expected to be implemented on campus from the academic year 2023/2024.

The principles:

  1. We are moving from many separate parking spaces spread across the campus to six easily accessible parking locations which are situated at the edges of the campus.
  2. From the campus ring, car users will be guided quickly to a space with the help of a dynamic signage system.
  3. The number of occupied spaces will be monitored using a digital access control system, this way car users will always know where spaces are available.
  4. Barriers will be placed at the entrances to the parking areas. You can read more about this below.
  5. All the parking areas are located within walking distance of the building where you need to be.

Below you can see what the parking policy means for each (target)group of the TU Delft Campus.

Different target groups of the parking policy:
