Fairfax Campus Notice: Parking and Traffic Advisory

On the evening of Thursday, Sept. 5, increased traffic is expected on and around the Fairfax Campus, as well as an increase in on-campus parking, due to a concert at EagleBank Arena. The concert starts at 8 p.m., with doors opening at 7 p.m.

Levels 4 and 5 of Shenandoah Parking Deck will be open to General area parking permits and event parking starting at 4 p.m. Vehicles should enter Shenandoah Deck at the Level 3 permit entrance. The concert is scheduled to end by 11 p.m. All General area permit parkers, as well as event parkers, should exit the Shenandoah Deck by 11:30 p.m.

Drivers should allow additional travel time to and from campus and avoid the southern end of campus near EagleBank Arena and Braddock Road. Extra time should be allowed if using Mason Shuttles.

To avoid arena parking and traffic impacts, drivers may park in the Rappahannock Parking Deck on the north end of campus and use University Drive and Roberts Road to enter/exit campus.

For more information about events at EagleBank Arena, go to eaglebankarena.com.

On Saturday, Sept. 7, alternating one lane closures will be in effect on Patriot Circle between Campus Drive and Lot I for road repairs. Avoid this area if possible, and be prepared for traffic delays.
