Press Avenue Garage Construction to Begin June 21

LEXINGTON, Ky. (June 20, 2014) — As part of the annual routine maintenance work on the University of Kentucky's parking structures, UK Parking and Transportation Services says construction will significantly impact the Press Avenue Garage (PS #6) starting Saturday, June 21.

The Press Avenue Garage will be closed Saturday, June 21 and Sunday, June 22. Once the garage reopens Monday, June 23, the work will cause approximately 50 parking spaces to be blocked at a time, although the area will shift throughout the facility during this project.

During the summer months, parking demand is reduced, providing increased flexibility in parking alternatives. Employees who normally park in the Press Avenue Garage should allow extra commute time. If the facility is full, employees may park in any E or R areas or the K areas at Commonwealth Stadium.

The work on the Press Avenue Garage is expected to last approximately one week. However, as always, construction is weather-dependent and the timetable may change.
