Special
Restrictions During Dome Events
Special parking restrictions apply during
Carrier Dome events.
If you plan to park on the Main Campus, be aware of the schedule.
The Syracuse Record, published weekly during the academic
year, describes restrictions for specific events in "The
SU Calendar."
Permit Parking:
SU permits are valid in University Place, Nursing
North and South, Comstock, and Lehman on a space available
basis. The West Campus lot is normally open to Manley permits
but is closed during basketball event restrictions.
Visitor Parking:
At the Waverly Avenue, Comstock, and Marion lots,
special event rates are charged. The Raynor Avenue visitor
lot is closed.
Alternative Routes for Dome-Event Nights:
Students with valid University parking stickers who
have an academic need to be on Main Campus during Carrier
Dome events should plan to park in the University Place, Nursing
North and South, Lehman, Comstock or Women's Building North
and South lots. Because of the traffic congestion and high
demand for parking, please allow extra travel time. You need
to alter your route to campus to avoid predictable traffic
congestion, such as the Almond Street exit of the Route 81/690
interchange, Adams Street, or the Colvin Street/Comstock Avenue
intersection.
Here are suggested routes for avoiding
traffic tie-ups:
From the east: From the intersection
of Erie Boulevard and Teall/Columbus, go south on Columbus
Avenue for four blocks and turn left onto East Genesee. Go
one block and turn right onto Westcott, go five blocks and
turn right onto Euclid Avenue and go seven blocks to Ostrom
or Comstock. Turn right off Ostrom or Comstock for the University
Place, Comstock, Women's Building, or Nursing lots.
From the west: Exit Route 690 at West
Street, then go east on Fayette Street to University Avenue;
turn right. After you pass the Harrison Street intersection,
take the next left to the University Avenue/Alibrandi parking
lot. Or, turn left off University Avenue onto Madison, turn
right onto Ostrom. Turn right off Ostrom at Marshall for the
Nursing lots, or right at University Place (and then left)
for the University Place lot, left onto Comstock for the Comstock
or Women's Building lot.
From the north: Exit south-bound Route
81 at Clinton Street (downtown). Stay on Clinton until Fayette
Street. Turn left and stay on Fayette. Follow the "From
the west" directions on the route to campus lots from
there.
From the south: Avoiding the Route 81
Adams Street exit, go north on South Salina Street until the
fork in the road to Warren Street (by Graystone Square). Take
the next right onto Adams. Then turn left onto State, go two
blocks, and turn right at Genesee. Stay on Genesee until University
Avenue; turn right. Follow the "From the west" directions
from there.
