📝 Parking Frustrations? Tell the City!

Colorado Springs Parking Survey

Love Downtown and Old Colorado City but find parking stressful, whether it's hunting for a spot or feeding the meters during your outings? The city wants to hear from you. The City of Colorado Springs is conducting a survey to gather feedback on parking experiences in these areas. Your input will help shape a new Parking and Curb Management Plan aimed at improving accessibility and efficiency. The survey, which includes an interactive map for detailed responses, is open until August 28. Findings will guide a plan for City Council consideration in early 2025. Participate through the city’s website.
