Parking instructions:
There are three parking lots for BikeFest, along with some curbside parking on North Cameron St.
Your best bet is the
Hillsborough Public Parking Garage
Nash and Kollock Street
If you are an early bird, you can park at one of the two surface lots:
Orange County Board of Elections lot
208 S Cameron St
Coleman Law Offices lot (front and back)
129 E Tryon St (on the corner of E. Tryon and N. Cameron St.)
Signs and volunteers will direct you. If volunteers are directing you away from the surface lots, it is because they are full. You will save yourself a lot of time and reduce traffic circulation if you follow their guidance. Please only use legal street parking if no other spots are available.
Importantly, DO NOT to park in these locations (there will be “NO PARKING” signs and/or cones at these locations):
- The surface lot across Nash and Kollock St. from the Weaver Street Market.
- The Eno Farmers Market Lot (entrance on Margaret Lane).
- The U.S. Post Office lot on Margaret Lane
