COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

The patient and visitor parking garage attached to University Hospital in Columbia will close for a month – beginning Monday – for construction and upgrades, according to a press release from MU Health Care.

Upgrades include a new automated parking guidance system displaying the number of spaces available on each level, and an additional entrance on the northeast side for the new Children’s Hospital, which is slated to open in June 2024. Construction crews will also perform maintenance and concrete beam repairs, the release stated.

The release states that while the garage is unavailable, patients and visitors are advised to park in the west side of Parking Structure 7, located just south of the hospital between Hospital Drive and Virginia Avenue.

MU Health Care has shuttles running 24 hours a day, seven days a week will pick up patients and visitors from their cars and transport them to the main entrance of University Hospital, University Physicians Medical Building and Missouri Orthopaedic Institute, the release states.
