Facility Overview
The Rutherford County Judicial Center parking area serves the administrative core of Murfreesboro, TN. Located at 223 N Maple St, this parking facility is designed primarily to support the high volume of traffic associated with the Rutherford County Judicial Center and surrounding civic offices. The lot features an open-air surface layout that accommodates standard passenger vehicles.
