Parking at Caltech
We are planning to provide a shuttle bus from the Hilton/Sheraton to the Caltech campus. Parking space at Caltech is limited but will be available for a fee of $3/day per vehicle. Daily and/or weekly permits can be purchased at registration. Visitors should try to use the lot on California Blvd. (across from campus). Pay stations (see $ symbols on Map of parking at Caltech below) can also be used for $5 per day without the need to purchase a permit. Note that no parking will be allowed in the Holliston garage.
Public Transportation
Pasadena runs a public bus service (Pasadena Arts Bus Route 10) that is very convenient for getting to/form the conference hotel and the Tuesday evening reception at the Pacific Asia Museum. A route map and schedule can be downloaded from the links below.
