Dear Colleagues:
Travelling to Fermilab is easiest by flying to O'Hare or Midway airports and renting a car to drive to Fermilab. Below you will find driving instructions to Fermilab (which straddles the suburbs of Batavia, Geneva, and Warrenville). Also, you will find maps to and phone numbers for hotels around Fermilab (if you are particularly fond of having internet access in your hotel, the Comfort Inn has it and is quite close to FNAL). If you wish to have limousine service from O'Hare to Fermilab or vice versa, there is a link below (it's about 40 dollars one-way).
A note on access to the FNAL site: the most up-to-date site access info is available at the link below. At present, the lab has established publicly-accessible regions which require no identification or clearance for entry. The ground floor of Wilson Hall, where our workshop will be held, is such a public area. Once you arrive at the workshop, we will arrange for ID cards for those who register in order to permit tours of other parts of the lab.
