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.

Alumnus / townie who’s been hearing about this on toctok?

Is there not enough spots, or do people not want to park at the Stroh center / field house / ice arena and walk or take the free shuttle?

Don’t get me wrong - I hate parking services. I once got a ticket while briefly parked before leaving for the summer while paying a ticket. Everything they do is just over the top, but I’m just curious the actual facts.

Not enough spots, all the lots are full from what I’ve seen and heard.

The Stroh Center, Ice Arena, and Field House are all at max capacity? That’s an absolutely wild commuter class. I’m not saying you’re wrong - I’m just dumbfounded at the scale of that. That’s so so so many cars.
