"We are planning carefully and thoughtfully to ensure that inbound and outbound traffic and parking present few disruptions to the campus," said Sarah Blouch, director for Ohio State Transportation and Parking Services.
"I want to encourage fans to review our football parking maps before traveling to campus because of changes in several lot designations."
Beginning at 3 p.m., all season and day-of-game parking permit lots will open. The West Campus and disability shuttles will begin operation and provide continuous service, free of charge, through one hour after the game. Fans arriving earlier than 3 p.m., may park in the Buckeye Lots located on Fred Taylor Drive at Ackerman Road. The day-of-game parking fee is $15.
Guests will enjoy the addition of 1,400 new spaces to the game-day landscape with day-of-game parking now available in the new Lane Avenue Garage. Disability parking, relocated the last two years because of campus construction, will be consolidated on the north lot of St. John Arena with overflow parking available in the Lane Avenue Garage.
Parking at the Fawcett Center will change to a season permit lot, and the Sisson Lot and Neil Avenue Garage will be open for public, day-of-game parking. Current construction projects will close the South Lincoln and Parks Hall lots.
A color-coded parking map for the Marshall game (9/2) is available at
here. All other football parking information can located
