With the Ohio River above flood stage downtown, commuters are having to find new places to park. High water has cutoff access to many of the parking garages and surface lots south of Third Street.
Here is the latest update on Riverfront Parking from Hamilton County (as of 7AM Monday):
Lot A at Third & Central - open for business.Lot B - the lot is 3/4 available however access is from West Pete Rose Way which is currently closed so lot currently inaccessible. Lot D - closed, no access from either Mehring Way or West Pete Rose Way.Lot E - closed, no access from Mehring Way.East Garage - open except for the bottom level. However, the only access is from East Pete Rose Way (north entrance/exit). South entrance from Mehring Way is closed.Broadway West at Third & Broadway - open.Central Riverfront Garage - upper level (P1) open entirely. Access to CRG is limited ONLY to Race Street entrances and the Main Street entrance.
These restrictions are expected to stay in place for a few days until the Ohio River goes down. The latest projection from the National Weather Service shows the river is going to stay above flood stage of 52 feet until early next week.
