General Information

Pa g e | 3

The vast majority of FSU fans and visitors conduct themselves safely and appropriately on game day. The increased support and attendance on game days has led to increased safety concerns and managing those concerns while providing a safe environment is the goal of the Florida State University Police Department.

The Game day Game plan is provided to assist visitors and fans with important information that will help ensure a safe and fun environment for everyone who comes to a game.

What types of safety concerns do these regulations address?

Parking on sidewalks is a good example. When cars are parked on the sidewalk, pedestrians are pushed into the street and into the path of vehicle traffic. This is especially dangerous after games, when 85,000 or more fans are leaving the stadium.

This also makes it difficult for emergency vehicles ? ambulances, fire trucks ? to respond to the scene if they are needed.

To help provide important information using today's technology the FSU Police Department has provided detailed game day information on the department's APP called SEMINOLE SAFE. You can click on these links to download the Apple APP or Google APP

General Parking Information

General Parking Overview

FSU will be providing a limited amount of public parking on campus this year for football. For most games, public parking will be available in the Railroad Ave. Lot (corner of Railroad Ave. and St. Augustine St.), St. Augustine Garage and the Tucker Center - West parking lot. Parking in these lots will be $10 per vehicle. As with all other football parking lots, tailgating will be restricted to the parking space purchased and spaces will not be sold solely for tailgating. More campus parking locations could be added in the future if space is available. The availability of campus public parking will be game-by-game and will depend on other campus special events, university needs, and weather conditions.

Numerous campus parking venues, mainly west of Woodward Avenue, will be closed for reserved parking on home football game days. All vehicles MUST be removed from these lots by 11:59PM on the day before a home game (students, please do not relocate vehicles to Faculty/Staff parking areas until after 4:30PM on Friday). Vehicles parked after 11:59PM on the day before a home game will be towed at the owner's expense. This includes all floors of the Woodward Ave., Spirit Way, and West Pensacola St. Garages (including all overnight areas). Motorcycles and scooters must also be removed from designated Booster parking areas ? regardless of whether or not they are parked in motorcycle/scooter parking spaces. Please view the FSU Football Game Day Parking Map to assist in locating parking lots impacted by football (restricted football lots are shown in red). The tow company will be Hobkirk Enterprises Towing & Recovery, phone number (850) 224-6456.

While some lots and garages are reserved during football games, campus parking is still available for students, faculty, and staff. All floors of the Call Street and Traditions Way Parking Garages are available for overnight parking from 4:30 p.m. on Friday through Sunday. Overnight and commuter parking is also available in numerous parking lots on the northern and eastern sides of campus during the same time frame. Please review the FSU Football Game Day Parking Map to assist in locating parking lots available to students, faculty, and staff on football game weekends (open lots are shown in yellow).

All vehicles parked on the IM Fields (Booster Lot 14) must be removed within 3 hours after the end of the game. Remaining vehicles will be towed at the owner's expense.

Disabled Parking Program (DPP)

Florida State University is committed to ensuring that individuals with disabilities are not discriminated against and that they have equal opportunity and access to all the rights and privileges enjoyed by those who are not disabled. The University complies with all applicable federal and state laws, regulations, ordinances, orders, and rules.

In addition to complying with applicable laws, FSU has dedicated disabled parking for home football games. Due to the high demand for parking during FSU football games, these parking spaces are available through an application process.

Disabled parking spaces for FSU football games are located either adjacent to the stadium or in the West Pensacola Parking Garage (Booster Lot 9), which is located on the northwest corner of St. Augustine Street and Walker Street (just south of West Pensacola Street). Individuals provided access to a disabled parking space or area will be mailed information that includes a game day parking placard(s) and a parking map with directions to assigned space or area. The placards are non-transferable and remain the property of Florida State University.

Every attempt will be made to accommodate each request. However, due to the limited allocation of parking spaces, assignments will be made on a first-come, first-served basis. An individual who has received a parking placard in a prior year will not automatically receive a parking placard for subsequent years; an application must be completed each year. Any applicant who applies for disabled parking but does not receive a space due to limited availability will be placed on a waiting list in the order that the request was received. At the time a space becomes available, the applicant will be promptly notified.

An individual who receives a parking assignment as a part of their Seminole Boosters package must choose either their Booster location or the disabled parking location, but not both. Selecting disability parking will cancel the Boosters parking assignment. Football Ticket

Information: Don't forget to request seating accommodations, if needed.

Game Day Traffic Patterns

Pa g e | 8

The University's traffic management plan is coordinated with local and state law enforcement to give fans a safe and timely arrival and egress solution.

Law enforcement personnel will be positioned at major intersections and event staff will assist with parking lots at the conclusion of the game to direct traffic flow off campus. Please keep in mind that staff may be forced to change directions and routes on a game by game basis because of unforeseen circumstances such as accidents, traffic and other issues that often arise on game day. Please note that these actions always have the fans' best interests and safety in mind and are in no way meant as a hindrance. The goal of The Florida State University and City of Tallahassee staff and law enforcement is to provide the safest and most efficient routes, both on and off campus.
