Important Parking Info for Fall 2011

YsaisDP — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 18:41:15 +0000

ATTENTION LATTC STUDENTS AND STAFF!

INFORMATION ABOUT PARKING FOR FALL SEMESTER 2011

Enrollment at Los Angeles Trade-Technical College is higher than it has been in many years. That will place a premium on our campus parking. We are sending this message to inform you of lot changes, lot rules and some traffic issues. For Fall 2011, the lots available to students include: Olive Street Parking Structure (floors 3 and above), the F-lot (roof), Glory Church (across Washington), 22nd Street Lot B, 18th and Grand Avenue (near the 10 freeway) and LA Mart. We NO LONGER have access to the Ortho lot. We have enough spaces to accommodate every student who has purchased a parking pass, but understand that the first couple of weeks will be very busy and you may have to park in one of the off-campus lots. Staff may park in any designated staff space, and we are taking measures to deter students from parking in staff spaces.

Trade Tech has gone to a preferred and general parking permit system. A preferred parking permit allows a student to park in any lot. It can be purchased for $27 per semester at the Business Office, and includes a $7 ASO membership. A general parking permit allows a student to park in Glory Church, the Grand and 18th Street Lot and the LA Mart. It can be purchased for $20 per semester at the Business Office.

The LA Mart also has access to the Sports Museum lot on Main Street and students will be allowed to park there as well for the first few weeks of the semester.

The construction of the Expo Line light rail system is almost complete. Along Trade Tech’s west side, there is a now a left-hand turn signal allowing motorists to cross the tracks and access the F-ramp and the F-lot. At this point the light is not synchronized to immediately allow waiting motorists to make the left turn. It can take a minute or so. If that timing continues, there likely will be a back-up of vehicles along Flower Street during the morning hours, as many people try to get to the F-lot. Please give yourself extra time. The reverse will likely take place in the afternoon as people leave school, and the slow signal forces a back-up on the F-ramp. PLEASE BE PATIENT. We have asked the MTA to address this, and we hope it will happen soon. Expo Line trains are expected to start full service sometime in November. Please obey all traffic signs.

If you have any questions about parking, you may contact the campus sheriff’s office at 213 763-3600.

No Student Parking in the Olive Structure July 19-25

YsaisDP — Tue, 19 Jul 2011 03:29:23 +0000

As part of our partnership with LA Mart, we will be allowing their vendors to park in our Olive Street Parking Structure from July 19-25. There will be NO student parking in the Olive Structure during these days. Students may park in the F-lot or 22nd Street B lot. Staff parking will not be affected. In exchange, LA Mart will open their East lot during the first six weeks of our Fall semester, to allow free parking for any Trade Tech student or staff member. We apologize for any inconvenience.

LA Mart to Use Olive Street Parking Jan 18-24

YsaisDP — Wed, 12 Jan 2011 20:42:47 +0000

As part of our arrangement with the LA Mart, starting on Tuesday Jan 18th, those attending their vendors’ event will be using the upper floors of the Olive Street Parking Structure to park. This will NOT affect staff parking on the lower floors. It will impact students, who will be directed to other parking lots during those few days. There will be NO student parking in the Olive Structure for those days. Students will be able to use the F-lot, the Ortho lot and 22nd Street lot B. In exchange for these spaces, the LA Mart will provide FREE overflow parking in their lot for any LATTC students and staff, during the first few weeks of the Spring and Fall semesters. Hundreds of students took advantage of the LA Mart parking back in August and September. The LA Mart also provides FREE overflow parking for our special events like graduation and the job fair.

We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have questions please contact the LATTC Campus Sheriff’s office.

Parking Updates 1/4-1/19

F-Lot Parking

The normal entrance from Flower Street to F Lot (Roof) Parking has been temporarily closed to facilitate construction needs for the Metro Expo Line. The entrance/exit has been changed to connect to 23rd Street. In addition, access from Flower to 23rd Street will be closed between 9am and 3pm for the next several weeks. This means that the F-Lot Parking Lot can only be accessed using 23rd Street from Grand Avenue during those times.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Please call x7040 if you have any questions or concerns.

Olive Street Parking

The Olive Street Parking Structure is closed 1/4/10 through 1/10/10 for titanium coating to be put on. The 22nd Street (A & B) and F Lot are still open.

F Lot (Roof) – 400 spaces
23rd Street Lot A – 85 spaces
23rd Street Lot B – 75 spaces
Orthopedic Hospital – 450 spaces

Also, the Olive Street Parking floors 2 and above will be closed for parking from 1/11 through 1/19 for LA Mart reciprocal parking agreement.

F-Ramp Entrance Changes on Monday October 12th, 2009

YsaisDP — Sun, 11 Oct 2009 23:38:37 +0000

For those who use the F-ramp to park on the rooftop, there will be a change in the F-ramp entrance starting Monday October 12th. You will no longer be able to access the F-ramp by turning left off Flower Street. Instead you will have to turn left on 23rd Street and then left onto the new entrance to the F-ramp. This change is necessary because of the MTA’s work on the Expo Line along Flower Street. You will also be able to access the F-ramp from 23rd Street, by turning right onto the ramp. There will be a flagman assigned to the ramp entrance, along with signs to direct you, but there may be some confusion during the first few days of the new access, so please be patient and give yourself a few extra minutes to make your way to the ramp.

New Parking Available Near 22nd and Grand Avenue

YsaisDP — Fri, 25 Sep 2009 21:45:12 +0000

LATTC is working to increase available parking for students, to make their educational experience more fruitful. As part of that effort, Trade Tech will be opening two NEW parking lots across Grand Avenue, with entrances on 22nd Street. The lots are called 22nd Street parking lot A and B and the entrances to both lots are on 22nd street. Those lots will be open to students with an LATTC parking permit starting on Wednesday, September 30th. More than a hundred spaces will be available to students within easy walking distance of the east side of the campus. Our campus sheriff’s will be patrolling these new lots along with all others, to provide security and guidance. Our overflow lot at the LA Mart will still be available next week, so if you cannot find a space in any of the other lots, you may still use LA Mart at least for another week.

PARKING UPDATE! LA Mart Remains Available

YsaisDP — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 00:40:20 +0000

Our community partner, the LA Mart has agreed to continue our relationship with regard to overflow parking. For two more weeks, through October 1st, Trade Tech students will be able to park free in the LA Mart East lot as long as they have a parking permit. This decision was made today, so there is a chance the parking attendant may not be up-to-date. We are confident by Tuesday, any problems will be resolved.
