parking is available in a parking structure at the corner of Campus
Drive and Roth Way, one block east of Gates. The structure includes
pay parking (bring lots of quarters!), as well as "A" and "C" permit

From San Francisco or the SF Airport: Take US 101 South to Embarcadero
Rd West. Stay on Embarcadero for about 10 min, cross El Camino (major
road), turn right on Campus Drive, turn left on Roth Way. The parking
structure is on your left; Gates Computer Science Building is a block away
on your right.

above.
You may also come in from SF & SJ via I-280. Take it to Alpine Rd East.

By CalTrain (From San Francisco or San Jose): Get off at
University Ave. Station in Palo Alto. Form there you can take the
Marguerite Shuttle (red & white bus). Line "A" of the shuttle goes by
Hospital, stops right in front of the Quad and then continues on. Line
"B" goes up Galvez St.; this is not as convenient. Both lines run
every 15 min. 6am to 8pm, Monday through Friday. You can also walk from
the train station; takes about 25 minutes.
