The Virginia Commonwealth University Police Department expects an increase in traffic around VCU’s Monroe Park Campus on Saturday, Dec. 12, 2015, as part of the university’s fall 2015 commencement ceremony at the Stuart C. Siegel Center.

Graduating students and their guests are advised to arrive early at the Siegel Center and give themselves adequate time to park. Doors to the Siegel Center open at 7:30 a.m. for graduating students and 8:45 a.m. for guests.

Due to the closure of North Harrison Street at Grace Street (between Broad and West Franklin), guests are encouraged to access the West Broad Street Parking Deck via Broad Street. Signs will be posted in the area for event parking. Law enforcement officers will be directing traffic around the Siegel Center before and after the ceremony.

Attendees can park in the West Broad Street Parking Deck, located at 1111 W. Broad St. or in the Bowe Street Parking Deck, located at 609 Bowe St. The Siegel Center is located at 1200 W. Broad St.
