Transportation

Via Air

Madison is served by the the following airlines at the Dane County Regional Airport:

Taxi service from the airport to the University of Wisconsin campus is available.

Via Bus from Chicago/O'Hare

The Van Galder Bus Company offers service between Chicago/O'Hare and the University of Wisconsin Memorial Union. Busses depart every 30 to 90 minutes and reach Madison in about 3.5 hours. The cost is $24.00 each way.

Via Auto from Fermilab

From the Pine St. exit (west side of the Lab) take Kirk Rd. north (right). Go to Fabyan Rd. and turn left on to Fabyan Rd. Take Fabyan to Randall Rd. and turn right onto Randall (north). Take Randall to I-90.

  • Take I-90 West to Madison. It is about 100 mi. to the Madison exit, exit 142. (It's a LEFT exit).
  • Take Exit 142 left onto Hwy. 12-18 west. This is a local highway going into Madison.
  • Take the Park St. exit, 261B.
  • At the bottom of the ramp, take a right (north) onto Park St. Go about 2.5 miles through several (green) lights, past Regent St. to W. Johnson St.
  • Turn right onto W. Johnson St.
  • Move into left lane and turn left onto Lake St.
  • Two public parking ramps that charge by the hour are available on Lake St. and are within a 5-minute walk to the Pyle Center. On-street parking is very difficult to find on campus, and university parking lots requiring permits are closely patrolled. So public ramps are the way to go. Otherwise, parking will of course be available at your hotel.
