RALEIGH (WTVD) --
Downtown Raleigh businesses are expressing concern for parking changes coming soon. Drivers will no longer have access to one popular garage on the weekends and there will be limited times on the weekdays.

The Blount Street parking garage will soon be off limits to the public on the weekends. It was supposed to be closed off starting this weekend, but the staff tells ABC11 there were problems with some of the new equipment.

"A lot of people depend on this lot," said Raleigh resident Brian Myers.

The fight to find a parking spot in Downtown Raleigh is about to get even more competitive, especially during major events.


another case of a public asset being handed over to private interests? and it just came out of the blue? this just makes me boil, and i can't find any other story on it
