Welcome to Stadsparkeren for the staff of University Utrecht!

From 2 February 2026, Utrecht University will manage staff parking via Stadsparkeren. With a UU‑Stadsparkeren account, all UU employees — whether in employment or not — can park at the Utrecht Science Park (USP) and at the P+R Utrecht Science Park at the discounted staff rate. Stadsparkeren can also be used for regular parking, outside the USP.

How Stadsparkeren will work at Utrecht University

  • Create a special UU–Stadsparkeren account with Stadsparkeren.
    • Are you employed by Utrecht University? Then the monthly subscription costs for the first license plate are fully paid by Utrecht University.
    • If you are not employed by Utrecht University, you pay the subscription costs yourself and can choose between UU – Soms Parkeren or UU – Vaak Parkeren.
  • Only with your UU–Stadsparkeren account can you park on the USP and in the USP P+R at the reduced staff rate.
  • You can also use your UU–Stadsparkeren account to park outside Utrecht University, without additional service costs*:

    • on street, anywhere in the Netherlands (parking sessions are started and stopped in the app)

    • in participating parking garages with license plate recognition

      This means you no longer need a separate parking app for parking outside Utrecht University.

Please pay attention to:

  • Always select “Yes, I have a card” when creating your Stadsparkeren account. This allows you to link your personal Campus Card to your UU–Stadsparkeren account. The Campus Card serves as a backup in case your license plate is not recognised when entering or exiting.

    Are you visiting Utrecht University with a different car? In that case, you can use your Campus Card to enter and exit, or temporarily change the license plate in your account.

  • The parking facilities at the USP are equipped with license plate recognition cameras. When your license plate is recognised, the barrier opens automatically, allowing you to enter and exit without stopping. You may also choose to use your Campus Card instead of license plate recognition at any time.

    Please note: License plate recognition only works when:

    • the correct license plate is entered in the Stadsparkeren app
    • license plate recognition is activated
    • the license plate is linked to your Campus Card

    If you want to use only your Campus card, link your Campus card to a license plate and turn off license plate recognition.

Which parking rate applies for employees?

From 2 February 2026, paid parking will apply for UU employees on weekdays between 07:00 and 14:00 at USP.

Rates for employees:

  • USP Parking Areas: € 4,00 per 24 hours
  • P+R Utrecht Science Park: € 1,00 per 24 hours

The same rates apply to employees both in and outside of employment. More detailed information can be found in the manual.

*If you are employed by Utrecht University, or if you choose UU–Vaak Parkeren as a staff member who is not employed by Utrecht University, you do not pay separate service costs per parking session. With these subscriptions, you can start and stop an unlimited number of parking sessions, both at the USP and outside the university.
