Directions & Parking:
Get Directions through Google Maps
Outside visitors arriving by car should park in the Shaw Parking ramp, which is north of NSCL/FRIB directly across Shaw Lane. Visitors should park in a 'pay by' space in the subterranean levels and pay-by-plate at the stations by the stairs. Do not go up the ramp, as those spaces are by permit only. Note: parking in the Shaw ramp is free overnight from 6 pm – 7 am and on the weekend.
If the underground levels of Shaw Ramp are full, proceed east on Shaw Lane to the Wharton Center Ramp (Marked P on the right side of the map above).
Busses are welcome to stop briefly at the bus stop in front of the Chemistry building, from which it is just a few steps to the lobby entrance. Busses can park well south of NSCL in the “commuter lot” #89 on the northwest corner of Farm Lane and Mt. Hope, then wait for a call to pick visitors up again.
