Entrances and Parking Areas

Off-street parking rather than on-street parking is recommended for safety reasons.
Parked vehicles must not block main entrances to allow passage in case of an emergency.
No parking is permitted on the bridle path along Newberry Street.
The Hitchcock Woods Foundation plans to designate, limit, and organize all entrances for trailers and/or vehicles.
The formal entrances to the Woods are the Foundation’s point of contact with users and must be used as an opportunity for communication. The Foundation plans to place a kiosk at every formal entrance to the Woods.
The Foundation plans to have emergency access and 911 signage in place at all formal entrances. Each kiosk will include a laminated map with an arrow indicating in red “You are here.”
Foot paths created by private usage, especially where private property adjoins to the Woods, is discouraged. The Foundation cannot monitor the condition of these paths.

Information concerning entrances and parking (as of October 2005)

Currently, there are seven entrances to the Woods and five of the seven are on-street parking.
