Traffic & Parking Updates
Through traffic will not be allowed on 20^th Street after 10:30 a.m. this Saturday. The only cars allowed onto 20^th Street after 10:30 a.m. are those parking in the West Lot.

West Lot Parking: the main two entrances to the West Lot on 20^th Street will remain open as they have in years past. Thunder Street will live between these two entrances.

4 1/2 Alley Parking: must enter from 22^nd Street to travel back up the alley to your assigned parking spot. You will not be permitted to turn onto 20^th Street and you will not be permitted to use the 20^th Street entrance to 4 ½ Alley. All parking in the alley is reserved – you are not permitted to park in the assigned spots unless you have a reserved season parking pass. Your car will be towed if you are improperly parked in the alley.

Church Lot Parking: must enter directly off of 5th Avenue.

A-Lot Parking: must enter from the alley behind Fat Patty's and the Henderson Center Tarmac.

This is important: you must have a West Lot parking pass hanging from your mirror to turn onto 20^th Street after 10:30 a.m. State police will be verifying your parking pass prior to turning onto 20^th Street from 3^rd or 5^th Avenue to ensure you have the correct pass to park on the West Lot. If you do not have a West Lot parking pass, you must continue onto 3^rd or 5^th Avenue.

This is more important: if you are traveling northbound on 20^th Street (toward the stadium), you will not be permitted to go straight at the intersection of 20^th Street and 5^th Avenue. All cars on 20^th Street will be forced to turn right onto 5^th Avenue at this point. If this happens, you would be required to go down to 24^th Street and turn left to travel up 3^rd Avenue. In order to access the West Lot, you must be in the far-left lane of 5^th Avenue to turn left onto 20^th Street. The same is true traveling southbound on 20^th Street (from WV Steel). You will not be permitted to go straight at the intersection of 3^rd Avenue and 20^th Street and you will be required to turn right.

Please see the map at the top of the page and by clicking here for a detailed explanation of the updated traffic routes.

20^th Street will be cleared and re-opened to general traffic by halftime.

As a reminder lots open for tailgating 6 hours prior to kick off.

For all questions, please call Marshall Ticket Office at 800-THE-HERD and The Big Green at 304-696-4661.
