Bus
MHGS has made arrangements to help subsidize a portion of monthly bus passes for students and makes the passes available on site for purchase.  One zone costs about $45 per month and two zones passes around $62 per month (depending upon how far you are traveling).  If you are not sure about your bus route, take a look at the Seattle trip planner for more information. It is available at Seattle Metro's Trip Planner.

Note:  For those with disabilities preventing you from using Seattle transit, please contact Paul Steinke at psteinke@mhgs.edu to work out possible alternatives.

Carpooling
If you decide to park your car downtown, we recommend you find somebody with your class schedule in your neighborhood to carpool with and share the price of parking.  Think creatively with friends to reduce costs and gas emissions!  Anamchara may be able to help facilitate this process with neighborhood community groups.

Feeding the Meter
Limited metered parking is available on the street. Rates are typically $1.50 per hour and free after 6:00 p.m.
