Web Form: Good Morning, Today, right around 8:15 give or take a couple of minutes I was attempting to park in the Poplars Garage on 6th st. I came up Grant from 3rd St and turned right. There was no signage displayed stating that the road was closed, no sign out saying be prepared to stop, though I did see a sign peaking out from behind some equipment, but it was not set out and not visible. There was a concrete mixer in the middle of the road, but before I could try to turn around more cars pulled in behind me because that's when the majority of people arrive and this garage is very busy. I waited and waited. No one said anything, a guy waved a finger at me indicating it would be a minute, but we all sat there for over 15 minutes, unable to find an alternative parking spot, unable to do anything at all. Now, I have to stay late to try and make up the lost time, all because of this road being blocked. If I had known it was closed, if proper signage had been displayed, I would have driven to another parking area. I am incredibly frustrated. There were at least a dozen cars that pulled in to the garage behind me that I saw as I parked, so I know the street must have been backed up as well, possibly in multiple directions. I have absolutely no doubt that there were several people just like me who know have to make up lost time because they were unable to get to work to clock in even though they were a matter of feet from their destination. I would greatly appreciate it if you would express to this crew, that if they are going to block the road, signage should be displayed at that 4 way stop so that cars don't get stuck trying to access an inaccessible parking garage. And they should avoid blocking that area at all between 8-9AM and 4-5 if at all possible. I've spoken with many people who have had a similar experience. Everyone is trying to be patient, but this is getting ridiculous. Thank you for taking the time to read my complaint. -Holly
