Update (11/19/12) The Playland Parking location has been improved with lighting.
Update (11/02/12): West Evergreen is now closed between Howard and Main St. It will remain closed for the duration of the construction for the Tobin Lofts at San Antonio College.
Construction has begun at Parking Lot 26 between W. Evergreen and W. Park. Approximately one-third of the parking lot has been lost to construction fencing and equipment.
Park at Playland, ride free shuttle to campus
San Antonio College students and staff have a new option in
off-campus parking this fall with the opening of a parking lot at the old
Playland Park location. Two shuttle buses
will operate from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day and run every 15 minutes between
the parking lot and the campus.
An Alamo Colleges parking permit is
necessary to park at this off-campus location. 
This parking location will supplement the parking lost to
construction projects on campus. Students, staff and construction
workers are encouraged to park at the location.
Located at 2222 N. Alamo, the Playland Park lot is about 1.4
miles from SAC and can accommodate approximately 650 cars. The 40-passenger shuttle
will drop passengers off near the Fletcher Administration Center at Dewey and Lewis.
The last shuttle will leave the campus at 6 p.m. The parking area is
fenced, lighted and there will be security monitoring.
