Mobility Project Update: Dedicated Motorcycle Parking in Capitol & Main and 9th & Front Garages!

June 29, 2018

News & Notes

 

One of CCDC’s Key Strategies is Mobility – Expand mobility choices that include parking and multiple transit modes to enable universally accessible urban districts.

 

During the rate adjustment process the CCDC Board of Commissioners indicated an interest in providing as many Transportation Demand Management alternatives as possible to reduce the number of cars using (or wanting to use) our facilities.  Dedicated day-use motorcycle and secure bicycle parking were two ideas brought forth. With the update of our Parking Enforcement & Collections Policy in February, CCDC adopted a policy prohibiting motorcycles from using the upper floors of our garages. This is because there are entry/exit issues with such small vehicles.  As an alternative, areas in two garages were identified and equipped to accommodate FREE daily motorcycle use.  Improved lighting, signage and fresh paint in the Capitol & Main and 9th & Front garages create safe and highly visible areas for daily motorcycle parking.
