Ways to Manoa

For some students, commuting is essential. While a limited number of parking permits are available to students, there are many other forms of transportation to get you to, from, and around campus. We encourage our incoming commuter freshmen to share in our commitment to environmental sustainability and learn alternative ways of traveling.

manoa.hawaii.edu/commuter/carpool By sharing your ride, you’ll be doing your part to protect the environment and reduce traffic. You may also speed up your commute by using the high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) or zipper lanes on our highway systems. Carpool permits for the Lower Campus Parking Structure (Zone 20) are available to registered students who do not live in Student Housing.

manoa.hawaii.edu/commuter/electric-vehicles Electric vehicles may park free in the Lower Campus Parking Structure, as long as space allows. Charging stations are made available on the first floor through OpConnect. Visit Commuter Services, QLC 014 for a free EV charging etiquette tag.

It’s easy, healthy, and eco-friendly! Pick up a map from Commuter Services to plan your next route. Should you be walking alone during dawn or dusk hours, feel free to utilize the DPS Campus Safety Escort program. See page 21 for more information on campus safety.
