Park & Ride

Both UDASH routes offer a Park & Ride option. Maroon Line serves the Dornblaser/Lewis and Clark parking lots, and Silver Line serves the Missoula College Park & Ride lot for those commuting on to Mountain Campus. If you purchase the $31.00 Park & Ride Virtual Permit, you can park at either the Dornblaser Park & Ride or the Missoula College Park & Ride to commute to Mountain Campus.

Please note that if you attend Missoula College, you must purchase a student/employee commuter pass, or use hourly/daily parking.

Benefits of using the Park & Ride:

  • It's affordable!
  • You can learn to use and get familiar with public transportation
  • It reduces traffic and congestion
  • It reduces air pollution and combats climate change
  • Walkability and navigation around campus is safer
  • You'll reach your destination free of stress! (No more worrying about getting there early enough to find a spot.)

  1. Lewis and Clark Transfer Center, Park & Ride Parking (South Lot)
