DISABLED PARKING
There are a limited number of ADA (handicapped) parking spaces available on the State Capital grounds that are first-come-first-served and located just outside the Capitol building off the circle drive near its south side basement entrance:
- Enter the drive off of 14th and Sherman.
- Drive up to the barrier with the automatic arm and call box.
- Tell the guard you are going to the ADA (disabled) parking and the gate/arm will be opened to let you in.
- Park in an open ADA space at the south side (14th Ave.) of the building — access the building through this ADA entrance.
There are also a couple of ADA spaces on Sherman between 14th and 13th.
Of course, you may park in any metered space. [Click here for street map.] Meters that are bagged are reserved and should not be used. Parking at a bagged space will result in ticket and/or towing: regardless of a handicapped tag.

After 4 hours, the vehicle must be moved at least 100 feet.” See Meter Parking for those with Disabilities.
