Parking in Denver During the Democratic National Convention Will Be Plentiful
August 11, 2008
Numerous downtown public lots will offer delegates and visitors convenient and affordable parking.
LaRay Brown, general manager of Central Parking Systems, the company that operates most of the city's downtown parking lots, told the Rocky Mountain News that prices for the lots -- which average $10 to $15 a day -- will remain the same during the Convention Week. He also noted that many convention-goers will be using other modes of transportation during the week.
"I worked the Olympics in Atlanta and I've seen things like this occur," Brown said. "This is exactly like the NBA All-Star Game we had. We overplanned for parking and then the customer base for the event didn't arrive by auto.
"There will be a lot of bus traffic, but for the most part we don't expect heavy auto traffic from the convention."
