Parking

General Information
Because classes will be in session during the inauguration events, parking spaces on campus will be extremely limited. If you are a visitor to Ithaca and will have a vehicle with you, we strongly recommend that you leave it at your lodging facility and take advantage of any free transportation the facility provides.

If you are planning to drive, you may park in the B Lot or TRB lot, which is located on Campus Road near the intersection of Tower Road (GPS: 42.446397, -76.464369). Shuttle buses will run a loop to transport guests from both B Lot and TRB Lot to the Arts Quad and back.
