Pittock Acres Parking Plan

As visitation continues to increase, Pittock Acres suffers from parking issues inside the park and on adjacent neighborhood streets. Traffic congestion, crumbling road infrastructure, and insufficient safe pedestrian access creates an unwelcoming environment for visitors and neighbors. The Pittock Acres Park parking plan is designed to improve park conditions and help manage demand.
