Ackerman Parking Lot – Construction Update (October 3, 2024)
Posted on: October 3, 2024
Exciting news: construction on the perimeter ‘ring road’ parking lot at Ackerman Park is set to begin this week, starting on Thursday, October 3. This important project aims to enhance the parking lot by improving the surfacing, widening the aisles and stalls, and increasing accessibility for all visitors. The current asphalt is original and has surpassed its useful life.
Construction is expected to last until Thanksgiving, during which time parts of the lot will be closed. Temporary parking and alternate routes will be provided to ensure a smooth experience for all users. Please plan ahead and follow posted signs for detours and access. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we undertake these vital improvements.
Work Anticipated This Week (October 3-4):
- Installation of silt fence and site protection.
Work Anticipated for Next Week (October 7-11):
- Excavation of the edges of the parking lot.
- Beginning of demolition of the east parking lot (near the softball hub entrance).
