Any vehicle in violation of “no parking” signs will be towed at the owner’s expense, according to an email from Parking and Transportation Services. During this time, parking is available in the Commonwealth Stadium Red and Blue K lots, which will be off control, from 3:30 p.m. on Monday to noon on Tuesday.

Other parking garage information:

• UK HealthCare Parking Garage (PS #8) and the Good Samaritan Hospital Parking Garage top levels will be unavailable to general parking on Monday. These areas will be used for police operations staging.

According to the email, CATS Yellow Night Route will operate as usual, unless a bus cannot navigate the route. If so, PTS will change the route by turning down Patterson One-Way.
