Please do not stop in driveways, just keep going and follow signs. Autos: Signage and areas being parked change week-to-week and minute-to-minute. We open our Auto parking in stages, so not all spaces will be open to you for parking. Autos must be backed in and centered between the white lines of only one space that does NOT have an orange cone in it. Please do not move orange cones. Before walking away, please ensure it is inside the white lines of one space. Autos parked incorrectly, over lines, or not backed in will be moved. Vehicles will be moved if instructions are not followed or for security or access purposes. IMPORTANT: Parking staff are there to HELP guide your parking, but you the driver are ultimately responsible for making sure your vehicle is safely maneuvered and parked. If you have a concern while parking, communicate with staff.*
