Just passing this along so you can find your away around the SMU campus. As some of you know, it's pretty tight and parking isn't at a premium.
Getting to the game
· Fans can get to the game using Dallas' great public transit system, DART. Round-trip passes cost just $5 and parking is free at the DART stations. Shuttle service is available from Mockingbird Station, or fans can take the short walk to Ford Stadium.
· Both free and paid parking is available near campus. For ease, fans can purchase parking passes in advance. A map is available to show campus points of entry and the locations of cash and credential lots.
· Due to campus improvements, there is no longer direct vehicle access from East Campus to Bishop Boulevard. All vehicles with a parking pass for Moody, Binkley, and Westcott should enter campus via SMU Boulevard. Only vehicles parking in the Meadows Garage, the Church and Westcott lots, or on Bishop Boulevard will be allowed to enter via Bishop Boulevard.
· Uber will be operating on gameday with a drop off and pickup station at HPUMC.
Security Enhancements
SMU is adopting a clear bag policy this season. As at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, the only permitted bags will be those made of clear plastic, vinyl, or PVC which do not exceed 12 x 6 x 12 inches, one-gallon clear plastic freezer bags (Ziploc or similar) or small clutch bags (approximately the size of a hand), with or without a handle or strap. All bags except those approved under the clear bag policy are prohibited. Season ticket holders should have received two clear SMU bags with their ticket package.
Hope that helps
