About this Location

Facility Overview

Lot 22 is a dedicated campus surface parking facility located at Brigham Young University (BYU) along North 700 East in Provo, Utah. Serving university staff, students, and campus visitors, this open-air parking lot offers an easily navigable flat asphalt layout with clearly painted stall lines. Because it is an open-air surface lot without an overhead canopy or structural roof deck, Lot 22 features unobstructed vertical clearance, making it exceptionally accommodating for high-profile vehicles such as full-size pickup trucks, large SUVs, passenger vans, and vehicles equipped with roof racks or cargo carriers.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Standard BYU campus parking regulations apply on weekdays. Typically, campus lots require registered university permits (such as student \'Y\' or faculty/staff \'A\' permits) between 7:00 AM and 4:00 PM Monday through Friday. Outside enforced enforcement windows—including weekday evenings after 4:00 PM and all day Saturday and Sunday—regulations generally relax for general visitor parking, except during ticketed athletic events where special permit or donor restrictions take effect. Visitors are encouraged to verify current stall signage upon arrival and register temporary guest passes via the BYU Parking Services portal to ensure a smooth, ticket-free visit.
