Protip: on a game day, Berkeley traffic grinds to a standstill. This is due to the fact that in Berkeley, some things (well, most things) are backwards, so traffic engineers figure out new and creative ways to impede the flow of traffic rather than improve it. Don't delude yourself into thinking you can find a parking space.
- elic 17y agoOn the wiki there is a list of parking lots near campus: http://wiki.startupschool.org/doku.php?id=parking_2009 http://wiki.startupschool.org/doku.php?id=parking_2009 In a few days that should be updated with a list of parking lots that do not reserve spaces for the game. Parking fines are doubled on game days, so be very careful parking on the street anywhere in Berkeley.

- philwelch 17y agoThat's not entirely senseless--traffic engineers have tried and failed to improve the flow of traffic in almost all major metropolitan areas where automobiles are the primary means of transport. It appears that automobile traffic simply does not scale. As a result, encouraging people to abandon automobiles for other forms of transportation is the best solution left.
