Facility Overview

Primarily functioning as the expansive surface lot for the Walmart Supercenter (Store #1241), this facility provides hundreds of well-demarcated outdoor parking spaces.

The layout features wide traffic lanes, perimeter turning lanes, and dedicated cart return stations interspersed throughout the parking field.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Traffic along 53rd Street and Elmore Avenue can become congested during weekday evening rush hours and midday on weekends; choosing the signalized secondary entrances on the lot’s perimeter often reduces entry and exit delays. While the lot is well-lit and monitored by on-site store cameras, drivers should adhere to standard safety practices: park within marked lines, lock all doors, and keep personal valuables out of plain view. For those traveling with RVs or utility trailers, it is recommended to park along the outer perimeter bays away from the main pedestrian entryways.
