Finding Your Way to Price Center

Process Palooza's home base will be Price Center, in the heart of the UC San Diego campus.

The drawers below include specific links you may find useful, and you can always visit the UC San Diego Transportation Services site for a comprehensive overview.

Once on-campus you may make use of shuttles, shared bikes and scooters and more; get details via Triton Transit.

Note: the add-on Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt training on August 21 will be held at Torrey Pines Center South, 3rd Floor, Triton 1&2 conference rooms. Visit the Lean Six Sigma Yellow Belt (Add-On) page for directions and parking instructions.

Parking

All Process Palooza attendees are encouraged to carpool, use rideshare services, or explore alternative transportation methods. For those interested in parking, take note of the various options:

Process Palooza won't be reserving or managing parking, but we'll do our best to provide directional signage from the two recommended lots listed below. In addition to the parking options listed above, more information can be found on the Visit Campus and Get Around Campus pages of the UC San Diego Transportation Services web site.

Gilman Parking Structure

The Gilman lot is closest to our event at Price Center. Be advised that Gilman fills up quickly and early.

South Parking Structure

The South Parking Structure should have more availability than Gilman; for better or worse, it requires a bit of an uphill walk to Price Center.

Rideshare drop-off

Rideshare services will be automatically directed to designated Passenger Loading Zones. There are two recommended locations in close proximity to Price Center. Depending on the service you use the destination input may vary slightly.

Russell Lane drop-off: Input UCSD Gilman Parking. Depending on the service you may be presented a drop-down menu; choose Russell Lane or Gilman Parking.
Price Center drop-off: Depending on the service you use, input the destination as "Price Center," "Price Center Theater," or "Price Center Loop." It may also appear as Matthews Lane in the app. You'll be deposited just north of Price Center; follow signage for the UC Tech event.

Trolley

Big news! San Diego's Trolley system was recently expanded with several stops on the UC San Diego campus. The UC San Diego Central Campus stop is a 7-10 minute walk to Price Center. If you're staying in the campus area the Nobel Drive, Executive Drive and UTC stops on the Blue Line could be viable options. Those staying further afield in Old Town, Mission Valley or Downtown may also benefit. Give the Trolley a try - it'll be just like living in Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood.
