New Parking Garage At UTEP Set To Open For Sun Bowl

EL PASO, Texas —

Fans planning to attend the 77th Annual Hyundai Sun Bowl on Friday have a couple of parking options.

Parking is going to be tight for the game that sold out in 21 hours.

Those who drive themselves to the game can park in Sun Metro's new Glory Road Transfer Center parking garage at 100 E. Glory Road.

It will cost $10 per vehicle to park. There are 400 parking spaces available on a first come, first serve basis.

According to officials, Glory Road will be closed to westbound traffic so vehicles must turn onto Cincinnati Avenue or Robinson Avenue, turn right onto Oregon Street, right onto Glory Road and right into the parking garage.

Fans looking to avoid the traffic can take Sun Metro buses from six designated locations around town.

Boarding will begin at 9:30 a.m Friday. Passengers will be dropped off around Memorial Gym, which is located on the north end of the Sun Bowl Stadium.

Return trips will begin at the end of the 3rd quarter. Fans will be picked up at the same location as the drop-off site for each of the routes.
