City Hall drive-thru entrance to change

COLUMBIA, MO (August 11, 2010) - Beginning Thursday, Aug. 12, at noon, the Seventh Street entrance to the City Hall customer service drive-thru window will be closed. All traffic should enter the drive-thru via the new alley entrance on the Eighth Street side. Two temporary handicapped parking spots will be located at the east end of the alley for easy access to the City Hall main entrance.

This part of the construction process is expected to last about two months, weather permitting. There will be signage directing traffic from the old Seventh Street entrance to the new alley entrance on Eighth Street.

The north side entrance door to the Daniel Boone Building will remain closed during this time. Customers entering City Hall still need to use the lobby entrance of the new City Hall addition.

Questions should be directed to the Public Works Department at (573) 874-7250.
