Robinson addresses downtown parking and traffic, urges using parking deck and shuttles
Summary
Residents frequently raise downtown parking as a concern, Mayor Rochelle Robinson said; she told the Douglasville Impact podcast that engineering analysis shows parking availability and encouraged use of the parking deck and shuttle services for events.
Mayor Rochelle Robinson told the podcast that downtown parking and traffic are frequent resident concerns and said the city has asked engineers (AECOM) to analyze parking availability. "Parking is what I hear a lot about," Robinson said, and she encouraged people to use the parking deck and shuttle options during major events.
Jason Post and Robinson described practical steps to reduce congestion and unmet expectations: arrive earlier for events, use remote lots with shuttle service to the amphitheater and walk from nearby decks. Post noted Wednesday "wind-down" concerts sometimes draw "3 to 4,000 people," and both hosts said attendees typically find parking by walking from nearby areas.
