Commuting and Parking
If you are traveling to Los Angeles by train, the easiest way to get from Union Station to UCLA Engineering VI is to first take the B/D Line, connect to the E line toward Santa Monica, and then switch to the R12 bus towards UCLA at the Westwood/Rancho Park E line stop. Engineering VI is right in front of the bus stop.
If you are driving to campus, you can park at the Structure 8 Guest parking, which is a 5 minute walk from Engineering VI.
