Pick-up and drop-off to the Pavilion is also accessible from Doyne Avenue by using the open section of William Coffey Drive travelling from the Cancer Center to the Pavilion (it is the road between the Mortenson Healing Plaza and Parking Area 3).

These temporary changes are part of the Parking Area 3 expansion. View a map of the Parking Area 3 changes.
