DRIVING DIRECTIONS TO CHARLOTTESVILLE

There will be a Chevron gas station on your left and the Cavalier Inn on your right. Go straight through this intersection and continue 0.5 miles (you will go under a footbridge and a vehicle overpass). After the vehicle overpass, bear right at the fork in the road, onto Stadium Road. Continue 0.6 miles and turn right at the 4-way stop sign onto Alderman Road. Park in either of the two large parking lots on your right, next to Scott Stadium. The Student Activities Building (S.A.B.) is located in-between these two parking lots.

From the East, West, and South, take Interstate 64 to exit 118B, and 0.3-0.4 miles after the end of the off-ramp, take the next exit onto Route 29 North/Business. (The exit ramp turns into this exit, so do not merge.) At the end of this off-ramp, take a right at the stop sign onto Fontaine Avenue. Continue 0.7 miles to a traffic light (an Exxon will be on your left and a Chevron on your right). Take a left at this light onto Maury Avenue, and follow for 0.3 miles.
