There is an immediate pick-up/drop-off area on Emerson Drive, next to West Village Garage. Areas are designated by signs. Violators may be susceptible to citation and towing. Warnings will not be issued.
- Permits are not required in most locations from Friday at 3:00 p.m. to Monday at 6:00 a.m.
- Permits are not required when the university is officially closed.
- Any citations issued on Osler Drive or Cross Campus Drive are issued by Baltimore County as this is not Towson University property. All questions and appeals for these citations must be sent directly to Baltimore County using the contact information on the back of the citation.
