Update on the opening of Target Field
November 8th, 2010
The opening of Target Field is finally upon us and MPLSPARKING would like to welcome back outdoor baseball. Our parking ramps have been preparing for the opener since the first shovel hit the ground.
A few helpful hints when making your way to the ballgame:
- Follow the variable message sign information. These signs are current and up to date. As conditions change the signs will alert you to where parking is available.
- Watch for pedestrians. Since the ballpark is new many pedestrians are experimenting with routes and shortcuts to get to the game.
- Remember to lock you car and not leave valuables in sight.
- Don’t forget to make a mental note of where you parked.
- Pay attention to Police and Traffic Control Agents. They are there to help you. Have a great time at the game!

Thank you for parking with us. We appreciate your continued patronage.

For the first time in nearly 30 years, two of Downtown’s most heavily traveled streets will carry two-way traffic, making them even more accessible, vibrant “main streets” for Minneapolis. Weather permitting, Hennepin and 1st avenues between 1st Street and 12th Street will switch to two-way on Oct 10.
The conversion of Hennepin and 1st avenues from one-way to two-way street will dramatically reshape how people get around Downtown, and it will have benefits for drivers, bicyclists, pedestrians, and businesses in the area. The conversion means many drivers will be able to get more directly to their destinations, because two-way streets decrease the need for “around the block” trips drivers experience with one-ways. Having Hennepin and First as two-way streets will mean that traffic will move at reduced speeds at times. However, drivers will have better, more direct access to the businesses and entertainment along these streets.
