South Greensboro Street Parking Lot to Close October 17

The Town of Carrboro will close the parking lot at 203 South Greensboro Street to the public beginning Monday, October 17. The closure is part of ongoing preparation for construction of the 203 Project, a building which plans to house the southern branch of the Orange County Library and other municipal programming.

Signs are posted onsite notifying motorists of the closure, with a QR code linking to a parking map. That map, which shows alternative public parking lots around Carrboro, can be viewed here. Signage will also be posted around town to direct motorists to other lots.

The 203 Project broke ground in May. Excavation for the project’s stormwater system began in the southwest corner of the lot in late August. The lot has remained partially open since then, with the eastern section barricaded. Barnhill Contracting Company is leading the project, and more information about their plans can be found here.

The 203 Project is expected to be finished in the spring of 2024. Read more from the Town of Carrboro about the project here.
