Parking: The Madison Street Parking Garage (across from the Governor’s Mansion and two blocks from the Capitol) is available for parking.

Entrance: Capitol renovations began recently and will last for the remainder of the session and beyond. The Capitol grounds are largely fenced off, and visitors will need to go around the fenced-in area on the south side of the Capitol and then proceed to the security checkpoint inside the "carriage" entrance under the Grand Staircase.

Security: All Capitol visitors are now required to go through security checkpoints, including metal detectors and inspection of items.
