Ongoing construction projects will impact about 200 parking spaces on the north, east and west sides of Keesler Medical Center for at least three months. 

Except for about 15 parking spaces on the north side of J Street adjacent to the emergency department, parking won't be permitted on J Street north side of the medical center from 3rd Street to the medical logistics loading docks on 5th Street. This includes all parking spaces and lots on the south side of J Street from the generator courtyard eastward to 5th Street. 

Also, since the current emergency room parking lot is in the demolition area for the old energy plant chiller and old computer room, parking won't be allowed there for safety reasons. 

Some parking spaces in front of the new EPC on the north side of J Street were blocked off Jan. 27 for work related to the new facility. 

Heavy equipment and large trucks hauling debris will be in this area for at least 90 days.
