PARKING HINTS

Parking at UK is always a problem.

The pool is located near dorms and student parking areas are off-limits to non-students. The UK parking folks will issue tickets.

We have made arrangements for a nearby staff parking structure to be opened at 3:30 on Friday and during the weekend for your convenience.

Directions: After dropping swimmers off at the entrance to the pool proceed past the pool and the tennis courts on Complex Drive to the first Stop Sign. Turn right on Sports Center Drive and proceed to the traffic light. Turn right on Cooper drive and go to the next traffic light. Turn right on University Drive and then the first left will get you to the parking structure.  It is located approximately half a block from the Lancaster Center.
