Parking Garage Update
Published December 9, 2024
Shipbuilders,
As announced earlier this year, a parking garage will be built on existing Newport News Shipbuilding parking lots located between 37th and 39th streets along Huntington Avenue and Warwick Boulevard. Once complete, the multi-level garage will provide increased parking for both NNS employees and U.S. Navy sailors.
The footprint of the garage has been finalized. However, we are still working to determine the total number of spaces within the garage and allocations for shipbuilders and sailors. We will share updates and add information to frequently asked questions as details are confirmed.
Garage construction will begin during shutdown. As a result, the parking lots where the new garage will be built are closing Saturday, Dec. 21, and will remain closed until the new garage opens. To offset the loss of parking in these lots, the following areas have been designated as alternate Zone B parking locations:
- Bldg. 600
- Bldg. 903 Parking Garage (Level 1, 2 and the ramp to level 3)
- Bldg. 902 Parking Garage (Level 1, ramp to level 2 as well as designated Zone B spaces on level 2)
- Bldg. 901 Parking Garage (Levels 1, 2 and 3)
- Bldg. 908 Parking Garage (Level 5)
Additional shuttles will be added into rotation to account for increased ridership. Shuttles will be operational from 4:30 a.m. until 1 a.m. Monday through Friday. We will also pilot garage counters in the Bldg. 902 and 903 garages. These counters will include signage to indicate the number of available spaces to drivers. If the pilot goes well, we anticipate installing the technology in other parking garages.
Thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.
