Three lanes of University Town Centre Drive will be closed from the traffic light at the WVU Medicine and Walmart intersection to the parking lot entrance of Kendrick Family Ballpark beside Pioneer Appalachia Federal Credit Union.
These lanes will be closed over the weekend beginning on Friday, June 12, at 8:00 a.m. EDT and will open post-game Saturday evening. Two-way traffic will be restricted to “right-turn only” in and out of the Black Bears game day parking lots, as well as the following businesses:
- Courtyard by Marriott

- Star Furniture & Mattress
- Buffalo Wild Wings
- Pioneer Appalachia Federal Credit Union
Fans are advised to plan accordingly for traffic changes at the University Town Centre and to use Exit 155 – West Virginia University, to access the shopping center.
Game Day Parking
Game day parking will be available for presale beginning Tuesday, May 26, at 10:00 a.m. EDT only at WestVirginiaBlackBears.com. While stadium parking is limited, additional parking is available within the University Town Centre plaza. The Black Bears ask all fans to be courteous to neighboring businesses, as all property is privately owned and owners reserve the right to tow.
Due to traffic restrictions, fans parking in the game day lot between Buffalo Wild Wings and Star Furniture & Mattress must enter the Town Centre from Exit 153 – University Town Centre Drive. Entry and exit will be “right-turn only” both dates.
