Supporting Those Who Served: Veteran Parking Spaces
We are proud to announce a special initiative at TAP to support our Veterans and active military personnel. In honor of their service, we have installed 5 dedicated Veteran Parking spaces across three prime parking lots at the top of our Kingston Campus. These spaces are specifically designated to accommodate those who have served, ensuring convenient and accessible parking for our Veterans.
Where to Find the New Veteran Parking Spaces:
- Lot 1– Welcome Center: 2 spaces
- Lot 3– Tucker Lot: 1 space
- Lot 6– Fine Arts South: 2 spaces
Parking Requirements:
To park in these exclusive Veteran Parking spaces, you must have a Veteran/Military license plate along with a Veteran permit. The permit can be obtained by visiting our office at 44 Lower College Rd, 1st floor, Kingston, RI. Please bring your registration with you when you visit our office.
We are excited to provide this new resource as a small token of appreciation for the sacrifices made by our Veterans and military personnel. Thank you for your service!
