Public Transportation
The Riverside Transit Agency (RTA) provides bus services, including the CommuterLink Express, which departs every 20 minutes from UCR to RCC. This scenic route brings passengers to the RCC campus within 30 minutes. Active students on campus will be able to utilize this service for free with their student ID.
Parking Permit Information
All individuals wishing to park on the UCR campus must purchase a parking permit. Due to limited parking availability, parking permits for North District residents will be issued through a lottery process. More information to come soon!
Important: Do NOT bring a car to campus unless you have secured a parking permit. Vehicles found parked on campus without a parking permit will be subject to a violation.
Parking permit lottery is expected to open in early summer and selected individuals will be notified approximately 3 weeks prior to Move-In Day.
Estimated Cost: $92 per month.
