Free parking is available in the Bancroft Structure parking lot, which is located on Bancroft Way
across from the Berkeley Art Museum. The parking attendant will direct you to the reserved
Optometry clinic parking spaces (designated OPT). The clinic is a pleasant two-minute walk from
the parking lot or ride the free shuttle that will take you to the front door of the clinic. On
Saturdays (no attendants available), patients are asked to drive directly to the clinic to
obtain a parking permit and return to the lot for parking. Please make sure you park in a
designated OPT spot. On Sundays, patients are permitted to park adjacent to the Optometry
clinic (go to the clinic upon arrival to obtain a parking permit).
