Progress made on new zoo parking lot; third tunnel planned
Thousands of commuters traveling along northbound Anthony Wayne Trail have seen contractors making more and more progress toward converting a large tract of land on the east side of the road into a massive Toledo Zoo & Aquarium parking lot. While progress is indeed being made, the site is still several more years away from replacing the longstanding parking lot west of Anthony Wayne Trail, zoo officials said this week. The zoo doesn’t want patrons to think the massive surface lot under development will be open for parking anytime soon. Jeff Sailer, the zoo’s president and chief executive officer, said the zoo is being proactive and buying as many materials as it can in advance because of supply chain shortages in recent years because of the global coronavirus pandemic. The zoo also is acquiring materials sooner than it would have in the past because costs keep rising as a result of inflation, he said.
