G01 Parking Lot Construction Update

Reconstruction of the G01 parking lot closest to the Pond Student Union at Idaho State University continues and the entire parking lot will remain closed through the summer. Substantial completion of the project is expected by the start of the fall semester, although related landscaping efforts may continue in the early fall.

Facilities, operations and parking teams continue to evaluate the parking needs of campus and the impacts of the construction. An updated map, providing an overview of the new lot design, is available to view on the project website.

The total lot capacity will grow by 12 parking spaces with the redesign, offering a total of 559 spots, up from 547 previously. The new parking capacity includes a new parking area near the Fine Arts Building and spaces near the Early Learning Center that had not previously been designated for general parking. 

The reconstruction of this parking lot is being paid for by deferred maintenance funds from the State of Idaho. No University reserves are being used on this project.

Visitor parking will be available in designated areas during each phase of construction. For those who hold a general ISU parking permit, alternative parking is available at the following lots:

• G03: on 4th Avenue and E. Terry Street
• ICCU Dome General Parking Lots (no permit required in the north corner, close to the park)
• Reed Gym General Parking Lots

Individuals may also park at the PRT bus locations within ISU’s campus, and ride for no charge to the SUB. View the campus stops map.

Pick up/drop off for the Early Learning Center will be at the ELC Circle, the small parking lot directly next to the ELC playground. This area will also be available for the Idaho Museum of Natural History, ADA spots, and 20 minute temporary parking. 

As this is an evolving project, additional information, including closure updates will be shared as they become available at the G01 parking lot reconstruction webpage.
