If I wanted to drive to Madison on Saturday, where do I go and where do I park?

I know it won't be near the capitol, but where could I leave my car for some hours?

1. Last weekend, you could find a spot in the neighborhoods around the Capitol.

If you don't want to risk that, though, park at West Towne or East Towne Mall and take the bus in. You can get a bus schedule on the web.

2. We used the shuttle bus from East Towne Mall---

I think there's a pick-up spot on the west side too.

4. Some of the parking ramps down State St might have spots if you arrive early

We parked in Frances/Lake St last week and had to search, but found a spot after about 5 minutes. Shuttle from the mall is sounding like the best idea to me.

5. I'll check out the East Towne Mall most likely. Thanks for the tips.

There were a couple I couldn't see though.

6. We used this shuttle 3 times last week...

and it worked out very well. The wait was never very long, despite the fact that the line was. Drop-off point is a block from the Capitol. It's very convenient.

7. I drove in E. Washington to Baldwin-right turn to Tenney Park

That put me about 1 mile from the Square, but on a bus line to the Square.

There is an enclosed bus shelter on E. Johnston St. about 300 ft east of Baldwin.

8. We parked at East Towne Mall

We parked at East Towne mall last Saturday and it worked well. Budget some time for waiting in line for a shuttle though. The line was pretty long. But there were a TON of busses running the route.
