Published

on

With large crowds expected in Oxford this weekend when the Ole Miss Rebels take on the Auburn Tigers, the Oxford Police Department and the city of Oxford are encouraging folks to use the free shuttle system to back and forth to Saturday’s game.

Free shuttle rides on Oxford’s iconic Double Decker buses will start at 9 a.m. from the Square.

The Double Decker buses will run starting at 9 a.m. at no cost from the Square to campus and back before the game, during the game and for two hours after the game ends.

Fans may park at FNC Park on Old Sardis Road, the South Oxford Center (old Baptist Hospital) and the Jackson Avenue Center for free shuttle parking and will be transported to campus. The JAC shuttle will start at 5 a.m. and other shuttles will start at 6 a.m.

ADA shuttles will be available starting at 7 a.m. This service will end one hour after game time. Visit olemissgameday.com for pick up locations.

There is no parking on Chucky Mullins due to construction. Be aware of posted no parking zones, and if you are unsure, call the department to verify. Vehicles will be towed from designated no parking areas at the owner’s expense.

City taxi pick-up and drop off will be at the intersection of Old Taylor Road and University Avenue. No other locations on the city streets are for pick up and drop off. If traffic is disrupted a ticket will be issued. Uber and Lyft should use the JAC lot and passengers can take the shuttle to campus.

Backpacks and track bags are not allowed on shuttles or in the stadium. Ole Miss is still implementing the clear bag policy. Oxford Police want to remind everyone to put valuables in the trunk and lock your cars.

After the game, be cautious of police officers directing traffic in the road at the intersection of Jackson Ave and Highway 6. Hathorn Road will not be able to exit at Chucky Mullins; you must go to West Jackson Avenue Old Taylor Rd traffic must take Belk Boulevard to South Lamar.

    No need

    Since bjork and Vitter have alienated so many fans, the game won’t be crowded.

    Ole Miss has become the most visitor-unfriendly campus I have ever experienced.

    It will never become a great public university as long as it keeps out the public.

    As long as Vitter and Bjork are there, ole miss will be a laughable failure.
