A brief description of the program(s), (s), including availability, participation levels, and specifics about discounts or subsidies offered (including pre-tax options):
Maverick Ride
This service assists students, faculty, staff, and campus visitors to reach their destinations after our regular shuttle hours. The hours of service are 7:00 p.m. till 1:00 a.m. Sunday through Thursday. An escort can be requested by calling 817-272-3381.
The Mav Mover operates every Saturday (except holiday weekends) to take the UT Arlington students for shopping in the Arlington area.
Demand for parking on the UT Arlington campus is at an all-time high. With more than 28,000 students enrolled in the fall 2009 semester, the University had sold 1,600 more parking decals by early September as it had at the same point last year. Popular student lots can become congested during peak class times, particularly from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Monday through Thursday. And circling parking lots, idling, and parking multiple times during one day not only waste time and gas but negatively impact air quality.
UTA offered discounted price for decals for the remote parking. Remote decals are less than half the price. Student permits allowing access to all student lots are $112.50 for the fall and spring semesters. Students who choose to park in Lot 26 at Maverick Stadium may purchase a “R” remote lot permit for $45. The full rate for faculty and staff is $150; faculty and staff who work east of Davis Drive may purchase a “R” remote lot permit for $60
