Rules for parking on NTNU property. Applies to employees and students. Norsk versjon: Parkeringsregler på NTNU.

Topic page on parking

Everyone has to pay a parking fee to park on NTNU property. Parking control on the university's property is enforced by civil law. This means that NTNU decides the procedures for parking on the university's property. NTNU can add, remove and change parking spaces without approval from the police or Trondheim municipality. Contact Apcoa Parking if you want to complain about a parking ticket you have received.

Current parking arrangements at Gjøvik and Ålesund will not change until later.

Special visitors may arrive with escort. If parking is being checked at this time, the escort must relate to the inspector and follow the instructions given.

Why does NTNU have parking fees?

The new parking system at NTNU originates from NTNU's environmental ambition (in Norwegian) (pdf), which was passed at a Dean's meeting in 2012. The environmental ambition defines specific objectives within energy consumption, waste, procurement and transport.

General environmental objectives

"NTNU shall be a leading university in utilising knowledge from its research in its own practice, to secure a environmentally sound activity throughout. This entails that we need to have full control over the environmental impact of our activity, and to make our employees, students and the outside world aware of this.
NTNU shall at all times have specific objectives for reducing environmental impact."

Subsidiary objectives for transport

"NTNU shall arrange for employees and students to have access to environmentally friendly means of transport in their every day journey to and from the university campuses."

Measures to promote environmentally friendly transport solutions:

• Carpooling, company buss passes, electric bikes, etc. should take care of service transport
• Better conditions for cyclists, including more bike sheds and changing rooms
• Free parking for electric cars
