Parking changes come to Zilker Park
Friday, March 27, 2015 by Elizabeth Pagano
Parks officials announced changes to the parking system at the Zilker Metropolitan Park on Thursday. The changes are an attempt to prevent traffic congestion on Barton Springs Road. Beginning this Saturday, there will be no entrance to the parking lot off Barton Springs Road on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Additionally, a $5 parking fee will apply on weekends, holidays and during special events from Saturday until Labor Day. A larger picture of the mapped traffic flow changes is available on the city website.
