Director's Corner
Welcome to Transportation and Parking Services (TAPS)!
In deciding which mode of transportation you will use to access the UC Davis campus, please consider joining the goClub - an incentive based rewards program for individuals who walk, bike, or share the ride (bus, train, carpool & vanpool) when commuting to campus. There are multiple environmental benefits, and financial and convenience incentives that accompany each of these transportation options, and I hope that your access needs can be served by these alternatives to driving alone. If not, please let us help you select the parking permit option that best meets your needs.
Thank you for visiting the TAPS website and enjoy your time on the UC Davis campus. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve your transportation and parking needs.
Sincerely,
Clifford A. Contreras
Director
