Pre-paid parking module for Barclays Center finally works, but only seven lots (plus on-site lot) now available; goal is 20
Atlantic Yards Report
The Barclays Center Transportation Demand Management (TDM) plan, though released last week, is still a work in progress. For example, the module to pre-purchase offsite parking finally works, after a significant delay, but only seven public parking facilities have been incorporated so far.
That means that, not only have people who already bought hundreds of thousands of tickets to arena events were not able to buy parking seamlessly, there are fewer spaces available than previously suggested. (No total is now listed.)
The draft TDM plan identified 20 other public parking facilities within ½ mile of the arena block, but now it lists "approximately 20." Vendor "Click and Park will make efforts to incorporate as many as possible of the 20 off-site facilities," the final plan states.
So far, as the map [at right] indicates, there are only eight facilities available, including 752 Pacific Street, which is the surface parking lot associated with the arena.
