Facility Overview
Lot 46A is an open-air surface parking facility situated at 960 N 100 W St in Provo, Utah. Conveniently situated in an active urban-residential and collegiate corridor just west of Brigham Young University and north of historic downtown Provo, the lot provides straightforward, ground-level vehicle accommodations. Thanks to its flat, open-sky layout, Lot 46A offers unrestricted vertical clearance, making it fully accessible for standard passenger sedans, crossovers, full-sized pickup trucks, SUVs, and high-profile work vans that cannot clear standard multi-story parking garage height barriers.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Always inspect posted signage upon arrival for specific parking regulations, designated permit requirements, or seasonal snow removal restrictions enforced by the City of Provo or private lot operators. During major university sporting events or high-attendance community functions, arrive 30 to 45 minutes ahead of schedule to account for increased neighborhood traffic along Freedom Boulevard and University Avenue. If utilizing transit for your final leg, the UVX rapid transit stations along University Avenue provide swift, fare-free transfers across the central Provo corridor.
