8th and Cherry St. Parking Garage to Close for Cleaning - Sunday, May 2 from 11 am to 11 pm

(COLUMBIA, MO) -

Columbia Public Works - Parking Utility will be conducting a "deep cleaning" of the 8th and Cherry Street Parking garage beginning on Sunday, May 3 at 11:00 am and concluding on Sunday, May 3 at 11:00 pm.

During this time period, all parking is prohibited in the garage. All vehicles should be removed from the garage before 10:00 am on Sunday. During the time of the closure, those who normally park in the 8th and Cherry Street garage may park in hourly spaces at any other city garage or in metered spaces around the garage at no charge. Vehicles with permits for the 8th and Cherry Street garage who opt to park in other garages should move back to the Short Street garage before 8:00 am on Monday, May 4. Those who opt to park in metered spaces downtown should move vehicles before 9:00 am on Monday, May 4.

A complete wash down of the garage will occur to help combat the corrosive effects of salt used to help keep the garage decks and streets passable this past winter. 

Reminder signs will be posted in the 8th and Cherry Street garage this weekend.

Thanks for your attention to this issue and thanks for helping us keep the parking garages in good repair and condition.
