Beginning next week, Spring Street will be reduced to one-way traffic from North Market Street to North Union Street as preparations get underway for construction of the new parking deck.

Parking spaces along this section of Spring Street will be temporarily removed, and the sidewalk and parking spaces on North Union Street directly in front of the construction site will be inaccessible for the duration of the project.

The construction area (shown in red on the map below) will be fenced and barricaded to ensure safety throughout the project.

These changes will take effect as Howard Shockey & Sons Inc. begins mobilizing and setting up staging areas for the start of construction. City officials urge drivers and pedestrians to use caution in the area and follow all posted signs and detours.

The new parking deck is a key element of the city’s ongoing River District revitalization, expanding parking capacity to support local businesses, residents, and visitors.
