Roswell, Georgia is opening a new parking deck downtown, but drivers won't have to pay to park there for a limited time. The city is closing Green Street for a construction project to improve underground utilities and build a new multi-use trail, so the new Green Street Deck will be free to use during this time to help maintain access for downtown businesses, employees, and visitors.

Why it matters

The free parking at the new deck is intended to support local businesses and access to downtown Roswell during the disruptive Green Street construction project, which is expected to last around six months.

The details

The new Green Street Deck was initially planned to be used for employee parking, but is now open to the public for free during the construction on Green Street. The city says this will help maintain access and support downtown businesses while the street is closed for utility work and trail building.

  • The new Green Street Deck will open soon.
  • The Green Street construction project is expected to take approximately six months, starting in May 2026.
