• Take Exit 3, which is the Hopple Street exit. At the light, turn left (east).
• Hopple Street will cross over I-75 and will intersect with Central Parkway. Continue on Hopple Street, which curves as it goes up a hill. At this point, Hopple Street becomes Martin Luther King Boulevard. As you continue up the hill, you will pass the back end of Good Samaritan Hospital on the left, and at the top of the hill, you will get to the UC campus, which will be on the right.
• Turn right onto Jefferson Avenue, which is the sixth traffic light.
• Turn right onto Corry Boulevard, at the second light, and park in the Corry Garage.
• Fifth Third Arena is north of the garage.

• Turn left onto Corry Boulevard, which intersects Jefferson at the first traffic light. Turn left into the Corry Garage.

• The Taft Road exit is inaccessible to traffic coming from the south on I-71. Because most northbound traffic passes through or originates from around downtown Cincinnati, an alternate route would be to take Fort Washington Way (which runs east-west, south of downtown) to I-75 north and exit at Hopple street. See the I-75 directions for more details.
• Another option, for those in or near downtown, would be to take Reading Road north, turn left on Taft, and follow the above directions to get to the UC campus.
• I-74 will merge with I-75 South. Take the Hopple Street exit, and then follow the directions for I-75 southbound.
