La Grange Downtown Parking To Be Easier To Navigate: Village

LA GRANGE, IL – More than three years ago, a La Grange consultant told village officials that downtown had enough parking, but some of it was underused, particularly the parking deck at Harris and Sixth avenues.

On Wednesday, the village announced on social media that it would make parking easier to understand, following the consultant's recommendations. The village said it had more than 1,200 off-street parking spaces.

"This is just the beginning of a larger effort to make parking in La Grange easier to navigate," the village said. "You may see a little 'refresh' as signs are replaced, so pardon our dust!"

A few things the village wants the public to know:

• Village parking lots are generally limited to three hours.
• The parking garage is limited to four hours.
• Parking time limits will now be enforced until 8 p.m., instead of 6 p.m.
• Lot 13 north of Lyons Township High School is available for customer parking after 11 a.m.
• A new online parking portal is coming soon with interactive maps, permit information and an improved purchasing process.
