Texas Tech will provide a free shuttle service for all home games this season.
LUBBOCK, Texas – To better serve its fans, the Texas Tech Athletics Department has announced parking and traffic enhancements for the 2017-18 men's basketball season starting with Friday's season opener against South Alabama.
For all men's basketball games, the S1 Parking Lot at the John Walker Soccer Complex will be the lone free parking lot for all fans to include ADA parking.
A free shuttle service will begin 75 minutes prior to tipoff and run up to 60 minutes following the game to transport fans to and from the United Supermarkets Arena. Buses are ADA accessible. There is no longer free parking in the West Lot across from the United Supermarkets Arena. Again, the only free parking area will be in the S1 Parking Lot next to the John Walker Soccer Complex.
Traffic patterns also will change for the upcoming season. All patrons with North Lot passes must enter the lot from the Main and Flint intersection. All fans with South Lot passes must enter the lot from the 18th and Flint intersection. All West Lot pass holders must enter at the Texas Tech Parkway and Knoxville Avenue intersection. All vehicles will be blocked from entering Indiana Avenue off of the Texas Tech Parkway.
Please reference the ingress and egress maps to better understand the traffic flow for men's basketball games.
