Facility Overview

Situated directly along the bustling corridor of downtown Jackson, Wyoming, the street parking at 50 E Broadway Avenue offers prime curbside parking merely steps from the historic Jackson Town Square. This open-air public street parking is maintained by the Town of Jackson, providing convenient access to visitors, shoppers, and diners exploring the town core. Being open-air curbside parking, there are no vertical clearance restrictions or low-ceiling garage limits, making it exceptionally accommodating for high-clearance four-wheel-drive vehicles, lifted pickup trucks, full-size SUVs, and passenger vehicles equipped with ski, snowboard, or bicycle roof racks. However, drivers must note the critical seasonal parking ordinance: on-street parking in downtown Jackson is strictly prohibited during overnight hours (typically 2:00 AM to 7:00 AM) between November 1 and April 15 to allow municipal snow removal operations to plow and clear the streets safely.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

E Broadway Avenue serves as one of the primary east-west arteries crossing Jackson, feeding directly into US-26 / US-89 / US-191 (Cache Street), which leads north to Grand Teton National Park and south to Hoback Junction. Ingress and egress involve parallel or diagonal parking along marked stalls on the roadway. Traffic moves at a relaxed downtown pace (15 to 20 mph), though pedestrian crosswalk foot traffic is heavy during peak summer tourist periods and winter ski seasons. Public transit connectivity is outstanding; the town is serviced by the Southern Teton Area Rapid Transit (START) Bus system, with frequent downtown circulator stops and routes connecting to Teton Village, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, and local park-and-ride facilities located just blocks away.
