Parking Violations

The City of Boston owns and operates the two student parking lots (1 and 2) on the Charlestown Campus. These lots are managed by ABM Parking and require a valid parking permit or daily pass.

Vehicles parked in lots 1-2 without a valid permit during are subject to a fine, towing, or a tire lock (or “boot”), which will be placed on the front driver’s side wheel of the vehicle for a fee of $50 per day. A notice with instructions to have the boot removed will be left on the vehicle; once the fee is paid via credit card, the boot will be removed by ABM.

Towing operator phone number and address will be posted on signs within the parking lots. Vehicles are towed at the owner's risk and expense.
