		<description><![CDATA[Notifying our patrons of expected congestion resulting from the U2 concert on campus next Tuesday, 5/24/11.]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://library.med.utah.edu/blog/eccles/files/2011/05/viewFrontFromNorth_m.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-837" style="border: 0pt none;float: left;padding:1em" title="viewFrontFromNorth_m" src="http://library.med.utah.edu/blog/eccles/files/2011/05/viewFrontFromNorth_m.jpg" alt="" /></a>Next Tuesday, 5/24/11, the University of Utah will host a 7:00 p.m. concert by the group U2 at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Commuter Services recently sent out an email notifying University affiliates (employees, students, etc.) of this event because they &#8220;anticipate this will have a significant impact on parking and traffic during the whole day &#8212; even though the concert begins at 7:00 p.m.&#8221; They have made a <a href="http://www.parking.utah.edu/events/">parking map for the event</a> available on their website for those driving to the concert.</p>
<p>The University has a number of transit alternatives that allows visitors and affiliates to leave their cars at home, thus reducing congestion and air pollution:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.commuterservices.utah.edu/transportation/index.html">UTA and U</a>: public transportation services the campus with numerous bus routes and the University TRAX line. Use <a href="http://www.rideuta.com/">UTA</a>&#8216;s <a href="http://www.rideuta.com/ridinguta/tripplanner/planner.aspx">Trip Planner</a> to plan your route.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.commuterservices.utah.edu/transportation/shuttles/index.html">Shuttles</a>: Commuter Services runs a number of free shuttle routes that allow anyone on campus to traverse our large campus quickly. Signs posted at shuttle stops include instructions on how to send a text that will reply with the next time the shuttle you want will arrive. You can even view a <a href="http://www.uofubus.com/">live map</a> that tracks the path of each bus on any and all routes!</li>
<li><a href="http://www.commuterservices.utah.edu/bike/">Bicycles</a>: bicycling &#8220;is convenient, healthy, and a green alternative to driving to campus. It&#8217;s virtually cost-free and allows much closer access to your destination than the parking lots&#8221; (from Commuter Services site). And UTA&#8217;s TRAX trains allow cyclists to put their bikes on trains to and from the U. Buses have bike racks mounted on their front bumpers that can carry two bikes at a time. You can bring your bike to campus on UTA, and on your return ride past all the automotive congestion!</li>
</ul>
<p>Eccles Library will be open regular hours that day. Parking at the library is limited; more information is available on our <a href="http://library.med.utah.edu/km/faq.php">FAQ page</a>.</p>
