DIRECTIONS

To get to Chapel Hill from the east, west, or south:

Get to exit 270 on I-40, which is Hwy. 15-501 and marked "Chapel Hill". From there, head west towards town. Stay in the right lane, go about 2 miles and Franklin St. splits off to the right. Stay on Franklin and go about 2 miles to downtown. Campus is on your left. (Student Union is left on corner of Raleigh St. and South Rd., next to the "Pit" student commons area; Raleigh St. intersects Franklin near the Planetarium- we recommend parking near Franklin and walking or taking the U-bus which is free and picks up in front of Schoolkids Records). The Parking Deck Plaza is on the north side of Franklin, between Franklin and Rosemary Streets. The Varsity Theater is un-miss-able in the middle of downtown on Franklin St. Cat's Cradle is another 1.5 miles ahead-follow Franklin St. until it merges with Rosemary St. and turns into Main St. Carrboro- Cat's Cradle is on your left next to the ArtsCenter.

Getting to Chapel Hill from the north (Richmond, DC, NYC) is a little different- you'll want to come in on I-85 South (splits from I-95 near Richmond). In Durham there will be a left side exit for "15-501/Chapel Hill"- take it and go a few miles, you'll pass I-40 and then use the directions above.
