More spaces open to red and blue permits

In addition to gold parking permit holders, red and blue permit holders are now allowed to park in the garage on Mississippi Street.

Gold parking lots behind Strong Hall, Bailey Hall and the Facilities Operation building were closed beginning April 3 because of construction.

Donna Hultine, director of parking and transit, said red and blue permits were now allowed to park in the garage on Mississippi because gold permit holders were parking in red and blue areas.

“We started out saying we’d honor gold permits starting now in the garage,” Hultine said. “Then we started to hear from red folks who said that golds were really pushing into the red zones too because they are allowed to park in red or blue.”

The gold lots will reopen August 1.
