Paystations

Automated Pay Station

Automated Pay Stations (APS) require payment by inserting a ticket at the end of your visit. Pay at a parking garage paystation before returning to your vehicle and exiting the garage. Keep your ticket away from cell phones, magnets, or electronic devices to prevent demagnetization of the magnetic stripe.
