FAQs

When will on-street parking on Irving Boulevard between Main Street and Jefferson Street open? Where can my customers park during construction? 

It is undetermined at this time when on-street parking on the south side of Irving Boulevard will reopen. However during construction, there are several public parking lots available for businesses and customers. For a map of available parking, click here. 

When will sidewalks be replaced?

Sidewalks along Irving Boulevard have been removed and replaced. For future areas, contractor is working to keep current sidewalks in place as long as possible. Replacement can last up to a week given prep, pour and cure time of concrete. 

My customers are having a hard time finding my business. What type of signage can businesses have during this time? 

To assist businesses promoting their operations, there is a temporary suspension of the sign ordinance enforcement for businesses within the construction area. This allows businesses to use signage such as A-frames, flags and banners. While enforcement is suspended during this construction period, placement of signs should not unnecessarily block sidewalks or interfere with traffic on the street or in the construction areas.
