Improvements are underway at the public parking lot located at 420 Meeting Street in West Columbia’s River District. In coordination with the property owner, work includes seal coating, restriping, and pothole repairs.

Work has begun in the larger section of the lot (Area A). Once completed, crews will move to the smaller section along Meeting Street (Area B). See attached map.

During work in Area B, the parking lot will be fully closed for approximately three to four days. This phase is anticipated to begin this weekend, March 27-31, weather permitting.
