I guess it depends on where the majority of parking is located; I think, ideally speaking, they would need to add parking facilities on the East side of the site and route traffic on 12th toward a 5th street entrance and encourage people to use what will be the 17th ave or 25th ave to access parking in front of the big 4/grandstand. Basically avoiding vehicle access on Olympic way between 17th and 12th.
