Parking for the 2009 All City Swim Meet at Shorewood Hills Pool is difficult, as it is at almost every pool. Please see the map for more detail. (click here to download the map)
We encourage you to:
bicycle or
carpool, and
plan to arrive at least one hour before the meet start.
If you drive, please note:
A lot south of Shorewood Hills School will be created to hold about 100 cars. The entrance will be off of Shorewood Boulevard just across the street from the fire station. There will be a one-way traffic pattern through this lot with an exit onto Harvard Drive.
Temporary angle parking is available on the terrace around Shorewood Hills School. Access this parking from a clockwise direction.
Additional on-street parking is available on many Village streets. The two-hour parking limit will not be enforced during the All City Swim Meet. Because many Village streets are narrow, some streets will be posted NO PARKING TODAY on one side to allow for emergency vehicles. Please watch for these signs if you park on the street. Violators will be subject to ticketing and/or towing.
Vehicle entry to the ‘pool loop’ of Columbia Road and Swarthmore Court is restricted to residents, individuals with handicap permits, and to coaches and officials with special parking permits.
A drop-off lane is at Harvard Drive at Swarthmore Court to drop off swimmers, spectators, and gear.
Parking for the All City Swim Meet is NOT allowed in the commercial district along University Avenue. These parking areas are very heavily used in the daily operation of these businesses, and there is not any space to accommodate you. Please honor this prohibition. Violators will be subject to ticketing and/or towing.
SATURDAY ONLY – Additional parking will be available on Saturday only in the following locations:
The parking lot between the railroad track and Marshall Court (Doctors Park). Enter this lot by turning west off of University Bay Drive just north of the railroad track. This lot will accommodate approximately 200 vehicles. Park only is designated stalls;
The parking lots for the commercial buildings BEHIND University Station (La Brioche, etc.). These lots can be accessed from University Avenue or from Marshall Court and will accommodate approximately 100 vehicles. You may NOT park in the lot facing University Avenue or in the northwest lot for the University Clinics (back lot on the left). Parking areas will be clearly marked. Park only in designated stalls.
The UW Credit Union parking lots will be available Saturday AFTERNOON ONLY.
