Parking Services offers support for carpools through several measures and encourages all members of the William & Mary community to consider the financial and environmental benefits of establishing a carpool.
Parking services offers a special single hangtag parking pass to carpool members.
- A carpool consists of a minimum of three individuals who share a ride to and from campus every day.
