Standard Parking

• The Hay Street Deck and Franklin Street Deck are open for parking.
• The rate for parking in decks and lots is $1 per hour, with decks not charging for the first hour of parking. Decks and lots have a maximum charge of $5 per day.
• On-street parking is $1 per hour and does not have a maximum charge or time-limit, unless otherwise posted.

Special Event Parking

• The City of Fayetteville will charge patrons $5 per parking space in the more than 1,100 parking spaces across the 12 City-monitored downtown parking lots during large downtown events, to include home baseball games.
• City-paid lots will be clearly marked with roadside signage indicating those lot locations.
• Parking attendants at the City-managed paid parking lots managed on game days and other events will take either cash or credit/debit cards as payment for $5 parking fee.
• Specifically for Fayetteville Woodpeckers home baseball games, paid parking will begin 2 hours prior to the start of the game, and parking fees will be collected for 2 hours following the start of the game.

ADA-accessible parking during events will be available in the City Plaza 1 and City Plaza 2 parking lots directly behind City Hall, and the ground floor of the Hay Street Deck. Cost to park in the ADA parking spots is $5 – the same as in other paid City lots. There will be up to 127 spots available for patrons with a current handicap parking placard or license plate.

The entirety of the ground floor of the Hay Street Deck has been marked ADA-Accessible Parking. This area is accessed from the driveway between the Amtrak Station and the Hay Street Deck.

Parking in more than 600 on-street parking locations will be free during events. All on-street parking across the downtown area, to include handicap parking spots, will follow standard marked-sign protocol, e.g. 2-hour or 3-hour parking spots, and will be in effect through 5 p.m. on weekdays. On weekends those parking spots will be free to parking patrons, to include on game days and other downtown events.

Private parking lots will be charging patrons their own rates across the downtown area. The City is not able to track those lot locations or costs due to constantly fluctuating conditions.

During baseball game evenings, approximately one hour prior to the game’s start time, a portion of Hay Street will become a pedestrian-only area in the vicinity of Winslow Street (near Amtrak Station) to Ray Avenue (near Huske Hardware), and no on-street parking will be available inside that pedestrian zone at this time.

Patrons are encouraged to not attempt vehicle access to the stadium on Hay Street from the Haymount/Airborne & Special Operations Museum (ASOM) direction.  

The City’s Police and Fire & Emergency Management departments, as well as Traffic Services, will continue to monitor the situation regarding the parking situation and pedestrian-only zones, and make changes to better serve our citizens as the situation permits. 

From an inventory conducted in 2019, 18 locations exist downtown with the capability to park 120 bikes.
