How do I get there?

Located at 195 Prospect Street, the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies occupies Kroon and Sage Hall on Prospect. Both buildings are in front of Ingalls Rink, near the corner of Sachem Street.

By trains and planes:

Trains run regularly to New Haven from New York City (via Metro-North Railroad or Amtrak) and from Boston (via Amtrak).

Commuter airlines provide connections to Tweed-New Haven Airport from many U.S. cities. Bradley International Airport in Hartford (BDL) is a major international airport accommodating all major airlines (including the economy airlines such as Southwest) and with direct flights to all major cities. It is located about 40 miles north from New Haven and is accessible by car, as well as by Connecticut Limousine’s Shuttle service and QConn Shuttle.

By car:

From I-95: From the north: Connect to I-91 North in New Haven; take Exit 3 (Trumbull Street) and follow directions below for I-91. From the south: Connect to I-91 North in New Haven (left exit); take Exit 3 (Trumbull Street) and follow directions below for I-91.

From I-91: Take Exit 3 off I-91 (from North or South). The exit ramp becomes Trumbull Street. Follow Trumbull Street to the end (at the fifth light - Prospect Street). Turn right on Prospect, F&ES is after Sachem.

For trips north from either the Marriott or from the Forestry and Environmental Studies School (FES) up to Marsh, take the Blue line. Beginning at 6PM, the shuttle makes a loop around to the Gym, so if you are coming from the Marriott, you can can board and get to Prospect St. If you need to arrive prior to 6PM, walk to York/Elm St. to board the blue line up to FES. 

For the return trip, please take the Yellow line, which runs south on Prospect every hour.  The Yellow line can be boarded up at Marsh, and guests would alight at College/Wall to then walk a few blocks to the Marriott.

If you need to go to the train station, both Yellow and Blue lines go to the train station after 6PM.

For Saturday service the only line is Weekend Blue, which runs from 8:10 until 6PM. 

Any rides after 1 AM require door to door service. Self-book by calling a dispatcher at 203-432-6330.
