Tuesday night’s rain showers have led to the closure of additional areas in some public parking lots for Thursday’s football game against Northern Illinois, according to an Inside Iowa State news release.

The release states that “grass lots G-4, G-5 and G-8 [along South 16th Street] will have limited availability due to saturated ground.” Lots north of Center Drive will remain closed to accommodate flood recovery work in Hilton Coliseum.

Carpooling, the use of smaller vehicles and early arrival are all strongly encouraged. Stadium-area lots will open at 1 p.m.
