University community members can park for free at Lot 108 on weekdays and use the Campus Connector to get around.
Lot 108 is near the St. Paul campus, just outside of the Minnesota State Fairgrounds. Parking is first come, first serve and the lot is conveniently served by the 121 — Campus Connector route, for easy acess to St. Paul and Minneapolis buildings.
Why park and ride?
It's free (yes, really!)
Standard campus parking permits and daily garage rates cost hundreds of dollars per semester. The park and ride lot is 100% free.
Lower carbon footprint
Sharing the Campus Connector for the final leg of your trip directly reduces vehicle emissions in the high-density campus core.
Productive commute
Use the short Campus Connector ride to review lecture notes, read, answer emails, or listen to music instead of navigating streets.
Reduce congestion
Fewer single-occupancy vehicles driving directly onto the Minneapolis campus means safer streets for pedestrians and cyclists.
Door-to-door
The Campus Connector picks up directly outside the lot entrance with frequent service (every 10 minutes during peak hours).
