Center downtown, traffic backs up fast along Main Street and I-64, so your private shuttle can drop graduates and guests off right at the designated Third Street loading zone before parking off-site. For Jefferson County Public Schools ceremonies at Freedom Hall inside the Kentucky Exposition Center, buses can easily enter through Gate 1 off Crittenden Drive (I-65 Exit 132) and use the abundant oversized vehicle parking lots on site. You can even set up continuous campus loops for Bellarmine University along Newburg Road so guests skip the crowded parking hunt!
