The ongoing Mackey Complex project will affect traveling to and parking for Purdue athletics events during the 2009-10 school year.

Both the G and J parking lots have been eliminated for this football season, and the F lot has been moved permanently north of its previous location. A new, smaller G lot will be open for the basketball season.

For regular vehicle permit holders, football parking lots open at 7 a.m. (except for except lots D & T on the golf course, which open at 8 a.m.) OR eight hours prior to kickoff, whichever is later.

John Purdue Club members who have purchased parking permits will be directed along Northwestern Avenue on the east of campus and McCormick Road on the west of campus, and then will branch off onto Cherry Lane, Stadium Avenue, Third Street, or State Street (State Road 26) to the correct parking area. For fans who want to park in the general public pay lots, the best route from the north is to take Northwestern Avenue to Lindberg Road, turn right onto Lindberg, and then proceed to McCormick Road and turn left. From the south, take State Street westbound to McCormick Road; there is general public parking to the south or north off of McCormick Road.

There will be two public pay lots this year - the IM Gold Lot off of Third Street and the IM Black Lot off of McCormick Road. The cost for vehicles is $10. Bus parking is in the Armory Lot off of University Street for $30, and general public parking for recreational vehicles is in the IM Black Lot for $30. For overnight parking, fans can park recreational vehicles in their permit lot starting at 6 p.m. the day before a game, and non-permit holders can park their recreational vehicles in the IM Black Lot starting at 6 p.m. the day before a game. Parking lots will not have electrical hookups. Paid parking lots open eight hours prior to kickoff, but no earlier than 7 a.m. the day of a home football game for all other vehicles.

For fans needing assistance, golf carts and shuttles are available. The pick-up/drop-off points for general public lots will be clearly marked as fans pull into the lots. The general public handicap lot is called Lot O, and is located off of Stadium Avenue between Lambert Baseball Field and Rankin Track and Field. The cost for Lot O is $10, and includes a shuttle ride to and from the stadium handicap gates.

The U Lot off of Intramural Drive is a John Purdue Club lot that offers free shuttle service directly to the northwest corner of the stadium, and fans can ride the shuttle back to the U Lot after the game.

Be sure to watch for the programmable signs on Northwestern Avenue and U.S. 52, which will help fans with directions.

All parking lots close four hours after each game.
