Parking conditions Høegh-Guldbergs Gade 4-6

Parking in the part of the car park located along side building 1633 (on the left hand side after the driveway from Høgh-Guldbergs Gade) is reserved for AIAS and International Center. The area is marked with signs that have red and white striped edges.

Parking in this area requires a special parking permit issued by the AIAS or International Center. A parking permit for AU employee parking thus does not provide access to park in the area.

The remaining part of the car park – along side building 1650 – is still included in AU employee parking.
