process. Employees who regularly park in these lots will need to park
in the AAC Lot (formerly the River Road Lot) or the Wilson North Lot.
Shuttle buses will be available from the AAC Lot from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Cars left in Park Lot will be towed to the far end of the lot. Parking maps are available. For information, call the River Campus Parking Office at 275-3983.
