Transportation and Parking
Transportation and parking options at the Innovation Campus include on-site parking (permit purchase required) as well as sustainable transportation alternatives that are available to you (U-Pass and Capital Bike Share).
Short Term Parking:
Monthly Permits: For individuals preferring to purchase parking month-to-month, a monthly permit may be purchased for $200 per month via credit card through the Virginia Tech Parking Services Portal.
Daily and Hourly Permits: Daily and hourly permits will be available at the parking location. The hourly rate will be $4 per hour for up to 3 hours or $20 per day.
The Potomac Yard Metro Station - located on the blue and yellow lines between the National Airport and Braddock Road stations will provide a way for students to get to the Innovation Campus.
Future Parking Cost
As a reminder, Virginia Tech Parking Services is required by law to operate as an auxiliary enterprise meaning that it must fully cover any debt service on the facility and annual operating costs as well as maintain sufficient reserves to address capital maintenance and other long-term costs. Parking rates are set annually. Rates for the 2025-26 academic year will be informed by Spring 2025 usage, projected future demand, future costs, and ongoing market analyses in Alexandria.
