Rio Grande Campus Parking Garage Opens Monday, August 24

The new 7-story parking garage at the Rio Grande Campus will open as planned on Monday, August 24, the first day of fall classes. 

The garage will provide 543 additional parking spaces at the corner of 12th Street and Shoal Creek. For information regarding the garage, please visit http://www.austincc.edu/locations/garage.php.  

Please allow yourself ample time to park while everyone gets used to the new garage. During the first week of classes, ACC District Police will assist faculty, staff, and students as they enter and exit the parking garage. A valid ACC parking permit is required and may be purchased at any campus Cashier’s Office. After the first week of classes, an ACC ID card also is required to enter and exit the garage.

The Rio Grande Campus Manager’s Office and ACC District Police will closely monitor garage operations to determine if additional procedures need to be implemented to facilitate garage use. Questions or comments should be directed to the campus manager’s office at (512-223-3002) or ACC District Police (512-223-1231).

The best way to avoid parking problems is to employ alternative forms of transportation, efforts that will reduce ACC’s carbon footprint and promote the college’s sustainability goals. Every campus has bike racks, and ACC encourages carpooling and the use of mass transit. Additionally, all campuses now include preferred parking spots for low-emission, fuel-efficient vehicles.
