Access management
During enforcement times, no one may drive, park or ride wheeled vehicles in Walk-only zones.
Bollard management
Bollards restrict vehicular mall access and are located in specific Tempe campus areas. Contact Parking and Transportation Services or your assigned construction project manager for bollard management information.
Car and vehicular access on malls
All vehicles traveling on campus malls must pass a vehicle inspection. Drives must obtain a mall pass* and register for driving on the mall class.
- For vehicle inspections, contact the Fleet Program Manager.
- Permits for university vehicles and mall passes can be purchased from Parking and Transportation Services.
Driving on the mall
- All ASU employees, student workers and registered volunteers who drive ASU-owned, leased or rented vehicles for official university business must complete the Authorized Driver Program.
- Contact the Walk-only zones team for more information on requesting restricted-access permits for VIP accessibility and matters of operations need related to safety.

Restricted-access pass
Restricted-access pass applications will be considered for:
- Essential functions or repairs that cannot be done outside zone enforcement times.
- Other extreme circumstances.
- VIPs.
Not all restricted-access pass applications will be approved.
ASU Parking and Transportation Services review restricted-access pass applications via an online form. Requests are carefully considered and few are issued. The safety of the ASU traveling public always is a priority.
