Westbound traffic coming from the East Side will be funneled from the I-25 Frontage Roads and directed to San Mateo Boulevard heading north to Balloon Fiesta Parkway and the northern end of the balloon field. Eastbound traffic may also enter via Tramway and Alameda boulevards.
The park is located in north sa国际传媒官网网页入口, west of Interstate 25, and about 12 miles north of the sa国际传媒官网网页入口 International Sunport via I-25. Volunteers will direct cars into parking areas.
