Public Transportation | Parking

For Friday, March 25 public transportation is highly recommended due to limited parking as a result of several on-campus events.


Public Transportation

The campus is accessible using metro rail and metro bus services.

From the Red, Orange, and Blue Lines there are buses that can get you to campus from the Dupont Circle and Rosslyn stations.

From Dupont Circle the G2, D2, D6, and D3 buses run within blocks of the University's main gates, with the G2 bus delivering you directly to the main gates.  The closest stop from D2, D6, and D3 buses is on 35th and Q Street which is about 4 blocks from the main gates.

From Rosslyn the 38B and 31 buses will get you across Key Bridge to 34th and M Street and Wisconsin Ave and Dumbarton Ave respectively.  From either stop it is about 6 blocks to the main gates.

Use Metro's Trip Planner to plan your trip.  Enter Georgetown University as your Travel To Location.

Free weekday shuttle service is available via the Georgetown University Transportation Shuttles or GUTS buses from both Rosslyn and Dupont Circle. GUTS services are limited on the weekends.
