Here's some info on the shuttle system for Saturday courtesy of Yale.

Shuttle System Set For Saturday

NEW HAVEN, Conn. - All parking lots at Yale Bowl for this Saturday's Yale-Harvard football game are completely SOLD OUT. There will not be parking available on game day at Yale Bowl without a parking pass.

Instead, there are numerous convenient parking options available to fans and FREE shuttle bus service to and from the Bowl is provided from two downtown locations. There is also a park and walk option available to fans in lots within one mile of the Yale Bowl. All of these options are detailed below.

The Temple Street Garage is located at 60 Temple Street and can be accessed from George Street, Temple Street or North Frontage Road. Yale has negotiated $3.00 daily rates at these two garages with the New Haven Parking Authority. Fans always have the option to park in other public parking lots.

Yale Athletics and the City of New Haven are asking fans to avoid on-street metered parking in downtown New Haven. Metered parking is enforced on Saturdays and is not available as a full-day option. In addition, parking in the Westville neighborhood adjacent to Yale Bowl is reserved for the residents of Westville. Vehicles that violate either of these mandates risk being ticketed on Nov. 21.

The City of New Haven will open additional parking lots within walking distance to Yale Bowl on Nov. 21. The Sherman/Orchard Lot and Tyler/Sherman Lot will open at 8:30 a.m. Both lots are located between North and South Frontage Roads approximately 1.0 mile from Yale Bowl. The daily fee to park in these lots is $10.00. To see the walking route to Yale Bowl on a map, click here.
