Parking

University Recreation would like to encourage members to use alternative modes of transportation when traveling to the Campus Recreation Center. The Blazer Express Blue Route and Green Route both stop across University Boulevard from the Campus Recreation Center. The Green Route also has a stop by the 9th Avenue Parking Deck, next to the facility. There are also bike racks located on the northeast and northwest corners of the Campus Recreation Center, along with bike lanes on 10th Avenue South and 16th Street South, leading to the facility.

All employees who park in UAB facilities at the established full-time parking lot, may be granted NIGHTS and WEEKEND parking privileges to the 9th Avenue parking deck on their UAB One Card by the UAB Parking and Transportation department. This must be requested through UAB Transportation, URec does not grant this access.
