Information:        

The U.S. Department of Transportation garage is at capacity with limited parking spaces for daily parkers and foresees an increase in demand for parking on special event days such as; the Washington Nationals Baseball home games.  Due to high demand for parking in the DOT HQs parking garage, all daily parking customers must purchase permits in advance at the PTRAN window, located at W12-101.

Once daily parking dates have reached capacity it will be deemed as sold out and no further daily permits will be sold for that date.
• Current Monthly Permit Holders: No action is required at this time. 
• New Monthly Parking Applicants:  To be placed on the parking waiting list, you must register in the parking and transit benefit web application system. For registration, go to your account or establish an account by using the following link: Parking Application
