Signage & Painting Program Update

New exterior signage at all of the Lancaster Parking Authority (LPA) garages is now complete. Interior signs have been installed at the Penn Square and Prince Street garages. The LPA’s goal is to complete the signage upgrades to the Water Street and Duke Street garages in June.

Painted graphics are also being added throughout all LPA facilities to help color code floors. Graphics work on the remaining LPA facilities will continue through the summer. The LPA is also investing in painting all of the stairwells at the Penn Square garage; painting the lobby on Duke Street and the front of the building on Duke and Vine Streets.

The Prince Street Helix Lighting Project

New color LED floodlights have been installed on the signature helix of the Prince Street garage, illuminating the helix in a range of colors. These lighting units will be programmed for various holidays, special occasions and a variety of awareness weeks. Partial funding comes from a PA Department of Community & Economic Development grant along with Lancaster Investment in a Vibrant Economy (LIVE).

Additionally, the current overhead lights that shine down on the ramps have been replaced with theater lighting (approximately 85 new light fixtures), that illuminates the curb line and road surfaces.


Did You Know... The LPA provides free scooter parking at the Prince Street Garage. Register your scooter, secure a sticker and start parking! The Prince Street Garage also has a bicycle rack available. Come to the office at the Prince Street Garage to sign up.

Multi-Space Meter Stations

Multi-Space Meter Stations will be installed in 14 locations throughout the downtown business district in June. These new state-of-the-art meters will coincide with the City of Lancaster’s streetscape enhancement project. Blocks benefiting first from the new technology include:

  • Prince Street from Orange Street to Walnut Street
  • Orange Street between Market Street and Queen Street
  • Queen Street between Orange Street and Binn’s Park
  • Queen Street at the Convention Center between Vine Street and King Street
  • On the South side of East King Street in front of the Convention Center
  • Duke Street between Vine Street and East King Street
  • The Christian Street Lot between Grant Street and East King Street

LPA customer service agents will be on hand the first two weeks the meters are operational to assist downtown visitors and merchants. A user-friendly brochure, available in English and Spanish, will help customers make the transition to the new meters. Go to our website to view the brochures.
