$20 per car at the Y Beach has been going on for a long time

And it's a hell of a lot cheaper that what I pay for IPTAY parking.

How are you supposed to get to Seneca if all traffic flow on
Aug 18, 2015, 3:52 PM

93 is 4 lanes east from Perimeter Rd to 76?

Can you get to Perimeter Rd.? The left turn on 76 should move pretty quick

you can take a left off of perimeter onto 93 to get out
Aug 18, 2015, 4:21 PM

towards Seneca--- if you are in lot 3 for example-- don't get on 93 by Esso as you'll be headed the wrong way and have to go the 76/123- instead cut over to perimeter through the parking lots/LJ roads(if they exist) and get on perimeter and take a left onto 93 headed toward the Y

That cuts off an easy out from neighborhood parking
Aug 19, 2015, 12:46 PM

Oak St next to the Esso is where the 4-lanes-out used to start; at that intersection you could go left or right but then any further east on 93 it was 1-way out towards 76.
I often (or used to, I guess) park back in the neighborhoods so that postgame I can drive to Oak St (Esso), then take a right onto 93 to head towards Seneca easily. By moving that switch one block west to Perimeter, that option is gone. Tough to see how the move makes much of a difference to anyone else, either, unless I'm missing something.
In fact, if that right-turn is removed at Oak St, it will worsen bottlenecks throughout the neighborhoods by forcing EVERYONE not headed east on 93 back through to 123. Maybe they think that closing College Avenue at 93 and eliminating that northbound traffic will fix that?
None of this matters if the switch is not so strictly defined at Perimeter... we will see. Not optimistic here.

encourage people to park there. Seeing a shuttle zip past all the cars in traffic will certainly make some people jealous.

parking may mess things up for the LOT 13 folks and other lots that come in that way as they will be losing a lane

for post game are an improvement with the games starting at 12:30. A lot of people will be staying to tailgate so everyone will not be leaving at the same time as would be for a night game.

tell you this. My mom has to use them, and every year during the first couple games, there's a ridiculous, RIDICULOUS wait on the buses. Sometimes up to an hour waiting on them to get through traffic and make it back to the stadium. You'd think after so many years of the same thing happening, they would notice and make some changes, but I guess not.

those. People always seem to think they can show up in Clemson an hour before the game for a noon-ish kickoff, and there's almost always a TON of traffic still stuck on the road cause so many arrive at once.

So basically... nothing new?

We park next to the mellow mushroom, and post game traffic on 93 has always been 4 lane eastbound from there on. Downtown traffic turns to a standstill either way, so closing off the road just means you won't get stuck there like I have in the past. Come early and leave late, always the best bet IMO!

So is there still parking at the golf course? It's not on the map and I've parked there for years.
