Parking plan for start of semester includes helpers at garage entrances

Aug 25, 2023

During the first two weeks of Fall Semester, personnel from LAZ Parking will be stationed at the entrances to the Clifton Campus garages (Central Parkway and Ludlow) to assist students and employees and eliminate traffic jams.

To further assist with traffic flow during the first two weeks (August 28 to September 8), the entrance to the Central Parkway Garage from Central Parkway will be closed, with electronic signs directing traffic to the entrance from Ludlow Ave. 

However, if the city road construction project taking place at the intersection of Ludlow Ave. and Central Parkway is not completed by Aug. 28, Cincinnati State traffic patterns may be adjusted again.

An additional electronic sign at the entrance to Clifton Campus will welcome students to Cincinnati State, since the replacement of permanent entrance signage is still in progress.
