New automated parking pay system at Arlington National Cemetery

5/20/2013

Arlington National Cemetery has recently installed an automated parking pay system. Here are the new parking procedures:

•   Keep your ticket with you.

•   Pay at the kiosks in the Welcome Center as you are leaving the Cemetery and returning to the parking facility. There are CASH and CREDIT CARD pay stations inside the Welcome Center.

•   CREDIT CARD ONLY pay stations are located in the parking facility exit lanes.

•   Once your ticket is paid, you will have 20 minutes to exit the parking facility with your receipt ticket.

•   If you lose your parking ticket, you must obtain and pay for a lost ticket at the pay stations inside the Welcome Center. Lost tickets are subject to the “7-8 Hour” daily charge.

REDUCE WAIT TIMES IN EXIT LINES
BY PAYING INSIDE AT THE WELCOME CENTER
