Following feedback from staff, Unions, the Student Union and the appeals process, the Car Parking Team have been working with Greater Manchester Transport Unit to create a bespoke online car parking application and allocation system.
The new system will be more equitable and quicker to use. The allocation criteria has been reviewed following consultation and feedback from last year's appeal process and will access a greater range of work and social based factors in order to allocate the finite number of car parking spaces to those staff with the highest need.
There will be some paper based applications available for those staff who may not have access to a computer or feel uncomfortable using the new online software but we really want to encourage everyone to try the online system. It is very quick, easy to use and will allow us to contact you at different stages of your application so you remain fully informed throughout.
You will need an MMU Login ID and password to access the system. For further information, please refer to the Frequently Asked Questions document.
All members of staff will soon be invited to apply for a car parking permit for the coming year running from Jan 13 until Dec 13. The window will open on monday 10th september at 9am.
Details can be obtained from the Car Parking team using the contact details below. All applications should be completed on-line or returned to the Car Parking Office, Facilities, Cavendish First Floor, Manchester.
Please note that all current permits will expire on 31st December 2012.
For general enquiries and further information please contact the MMU Travel Team on 0161 247 2989 or e-mail stafftravel@mmu.ac.uk.

You may also join a ‘salary sacrifice’ scheme that may reduce your permits further. Please download this PDF for more information regarding this.
The second option of payment is to use 'on-site' pay and display machines at 30p per hour and a maximum of £2.30 a day. Please also be aware that you MUST be accepted for a permit in order to access the car parks. A permit does not guarantee a parking space. The Car Parks will not be open to the public.
