QuoteHalup Does anyone know if one can park on the residential streets near COTA? Despite what that FAQ states of parking from $30, I’m only seeing $60 (for Lot A) and up to $200 on Ticketmaster. Lot A looks pretty far from where the concert is held. I’ve driven a car to 6 out of the 7 shows I’ve seen this year and have spent a total of $15 for parking, which was in Tampa, where I parked at so

QuoteDan If I have to do a bit of walking can someone tell me if the major streets surrounnding the area (Eloy Rd or 812) have sidewalks? All roads surrounding track (Elroy, Kellam, 812, McAngus) are 2-4 lane country roads. No sidewalks, a few streetlights, walk on shoulder. Once you walk a few miles there are some subdivisions with some sidewalks. Better plan is to share a ride.
