Phase 2, scheduled from June 8, 2026, through June 12, 2026, will have a particularly significant impact on access to City Hall, as the entrance to the parking lot will be closed during this time. To ensure the town hall remains accessible to visitors, a temporary entrance and exit to the parking lot will be set up. The image below shows the temporary entrance and exit.

  • The access road will be set up as a one-way street (blue arrow), and you will drive over the road plates toward the parking lot.
  • Please drive with extra caution, as the access road is narrow and there is bicycle traffic.
  • If you are coming by bike, please dismount as you approach the bike rack to avoid dangerous situations.
  • When leaving the parking lot, please follow the correct direction of travel.
  • Please keep the entrance and exit to the police station clear in case of traffic congestion.
