The growing threat of a major hurricane making landfall in Florida's west coast is now a worryingly real possibility.


Even more dire is that the chances of the storm tearing into or near Tampa, causing devastating damage as it tears through the I-4 corridor into Greater Orlando are growing by the hour.


As the situation develops, the City of Orlando is helping motorists who want to protect their car.

Central Boulevard Garage, 53 West Central Boulevard

Jefferson Street Garage, 62 West Jefferson Street

Library Garage, 112 East Central Boulevard

Orange County Administration Garage, 300 Liberty Avenue


As Hurricane Milton continues to target Central Florida, The Orlando Eye is now closed ahead of incoming storm

This is for passenger vehicles only and height restrictions must be adhered to. No oversized vehicles, campers, boats, trailers, watercraft, etc. will be permitted to enter.


All cars should be removed by 12pm. Friday, October. 11, dependent on weather and road conditions.
