Plan Ahead: UW vs. Rutgers on Oct. 10

Husky home games always bring a buzz of excitement — and a lot of traffic — to our Seattle campus. With fans arriving by bus, light rail, car, bike, van and even boat, getting to Husky Stadium is a team effort.

The UW vs. Rutgers game kicks off at 6 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 10, which may bring more traffic challenges than usual. With the rise in remote work and a later game time, congestion isn’t expected to be as great as in the past. Still, here are a few key things to know:

Getting to campus on Oct. 10:  

  • Use sustainable transportation. Whether you’re coming to campus for work, class or the game, everyone is encouraged to take transit, bike, walk, carpool or use a shuttle.
  • Game attendees: Parking will be limited, so please take transit or carpool if you can to save time and stress. Check the parking map for lot opening times and details.
  • Parking attendants will be on hand to help — please be patient, as many lots will fill gradually throughout the day due to regular staff and student use. 

Parking info for permit holders: 

Parking permit holders will receive separate emails directing them where to park on Oct. 10, but the general plan is as follows:

  • East Campus Lots (E01, E04, E08, E09, E12, E14, E17, E18, E19, E20, E21, E97 (TG/IMA) ):
    Closed to regular parking starting at 10 a.m. Permit holders will be redirected to other lots and garages.
  • Football parking opens at 1 p.m. in these areas:
    • Stadium Parking Garage 
    • Padelford 
    • N25, N24 
    • C12
  • South Campus Garage, Central Plaza Garage, C10, and Portage Bay Garage will be partially open for football parking at 1 p.m. and will be fully available by 3 p.m.
