New undergraduate students in the School of Arts & Sciences and the Hajim School of Engineering & Applied Sciences are arriving on campus on Monday, August 18, and Tuesday, August 19. This will affect some on-campus traffic flow and parking. The Valentine Lot at the Southside Living Center will be used as the staging area for the move-in process. Students and employees who regularly park there should plan to park only in the designated spaces closest to Valentine Tower. The remainder of Valentine Lot will be used to line up cars waiting to unload on the River Campus.
Students, faculty, and staff who park in any Zone 2 or Zone 3 lots will experience increased volume, as parents and families will be directed to park in available spaces in any lot along the entire length of Intercampus Drive, from the Facilities Building at the south end to the tennis courts at the north end.
Medical Center staff who park in Lot 1 will be required to use either the main lot exit or the south exit, as the rear exits from Lot 1 to Intercampus Drive will be closed both days. There may be a continued impact on River Campus parking on Wednesday, August 20, as parent and family orientation events continue. Regular overflow may occur on this day. If you have questions, contact the Department of Transportation and Logistics at (585) 275-4524 or parking@rochester.edu.
