Commuters may find it a little easier to find parking during the last week of school and in the spring with the Aster Street parking lot set to open Dec. 13.
The new parking area is an extension of the Hart Lot contracted by Residential Life to offset the spaces lost by the construction of Cypress Hall, according to Gary Graham, director of Parking and Transportation Services.
The new lot will be designated as a commuter lot with 210 parking spaces, said Steven Waller, the director of Residential Life.
“The concrete is all poured and we are waiting for the stripping, lighting and landscaping,” Waller said.
Waller said the construction is moving along on schedule for the Dec. 13 opening date, after being pushed back from its original September opening due to weather and other delays.
The new parking lot on Aster nears completion.
