PTL Onboarding: Parking

The Rutgers Department of Transportation Services (DOTS) has switched to a new web-based customer service portal featuring these service enhancements:

  • Faster response time
  • User-friendly, online, self-service request forms
  • Transparent communication, capturing all questions and comments in an activity stream
  • Online status updates and resolutions

All questions regarding parking, buses, or other DOTS matters must be submitted through DOTShelp.rutgers.edu. This process will generate an individual case number and you will receive an auto-generated email confirming that DOTS is working on your case.

Once your case has been created in DOTShelp.rutgers.edu, you will receive follow-up emails if the DOTS team needs additional information about your request. A proposed resolution will be emailed once an agent has all the information needed.

Top FAQs for RU DOTS:

  • Temporary Plates
  • Do I need a permit?
  • Where am I allowed to park?
  • Accessible Parking
  • Appeal a Ticket

*Please note: Parking cases are monitored Monday - Friday during normal business hours of 8:30 am and 4:30 pm EST

Incoming PTLs will not be able to register for parking until after their first pay period.
