The University of Wyoming’s Transit and Parking Services hosted a community meeting Thursday at the Berry Center Auditorium to get public input regarding parking in and around campus. Although it was sparsely attended, there were big concerns for parking availability in the neighborhoods around campus, the accessibility of campus from the current parking lots and properly utilizing the resources university already has.

Paul Kunkel, manager of UW’s Transit and Parking Services, said the meeting was part of an effort by the university to start a long-term development plan for parking and transit. He added UW has been working with consultants in addition to holding over ten stakeholder meetings on campus to start studying how to improve parking.
