Directions

To Campus

By car, Syracuse University is most easily reached from Interstate 81. New York State Thruway (Interstate 90) travelers should take Thruway exit 36 (Interstate 81) and proceed south. Both northbound and southbound travelers on Interstate 81 should exit at Adams Street (Exit 18). Parking directions will differ based on your visitation so please carefully review the directions below.

If you are flying to Syracuse, car rental is available at Syracuse's Hancock International Airport. We recommend that you make reservations at least two weeks in advance. Taxi service from the airport to campus costs approximately $30 one way.

Pardon our dust

As you prepare to visit SU, please be sure to allow additional time for summer construction around Central New York and the University Campus. Although travel to the University Avenue Garage will not be affected, University Avenue will be open to local traffic only between Adams Street and Waverly Avenue. A temporary pedestrian walkway is on the east (Sheraton Hotel) side of University Avenue.
