Texas A&M Transportation services is taking several actions in an effort to make up a more than $16 million deficit caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The adjustments will mean higher parking prices for some people. Changes will include “significant budget cuts” in operating expenses, postponement of capital projects for at least the next two years, elimination of 28 budgeted positions through a hard hiring freeze and adjustments to some permit prices. Students, faculty and staff with parking permits are not the main people who will be affected by rising costs.
