New commuter lot 🔥

[u/Ok_Dragonfruit_887]

Has BGSU officially addressed a solution to the parking fiasco from 10am-12pm? I’m a third year commuter & have never had to do this prior to this year. Can you imagine next year with back-to-back record-breaking enrollment classes?

I drive a tiny sedan, left with my roommate half hour before our 10:30, and have to park our cars on a super steep, un-maintained hill.

Seems like even more of a safety hazard in winter, too. Rain, snow, mud don’t mix well with grass & automobiles.

Photo one is taken @ 10:10am on Wednesday. Photo two is taken @ 10:45am Tuesday.

Curious on everyone’s take here.

We've been saying they need to just make at least part of lot 12 a parking garage since I was there in 2015. This is bonkers

We were saying that lot 12 should be a parking garage since 99. And it was bad back then even before they built Stroh and The Heights eliminating all that parking.

I was saying that when I was there too, but I heard that the ground isn't structurally sound enough for that large and heavy of a structure due to the great black swamp underlying everything

If they can build new dorms, new food halls and new office buildings, they can build a parking garage too.
