You get into the car with friends or family, drive downtown to that event you’ve been waiting weeks for, only to find out there is no parking available close to your destination.
Similar occurrences are what triggered the city of Round Rock to look at its parking to see if they need more spaces. City leaders say the City Hall parking garage near Main Street is a tight squeeze for cars, and many times drivers would get to the top, realize there weren’t any open spots, and have to turn around.
The city is now looking at adding electronic signs in parking garages to let drivers know how many open spots are available in real time.
