[Wikimedia-SF] Maker Faire - Shift Signup (Traffic/Parking)

[Eugene Zelenko]

Hi!

Actually there are lot small street down to the south from El Camino
where parking is free :-) Of course you should pay attention to street
parking signs. Walk is not too long from there to Event Center.

Also I don't remember big traffic from 280/92 last year.

Eugene.
