CINCINNATI - If you want to enjoy and navigate around the World Choir Games, there are several things you need to know.

Events will be held in dozens of venues, and a few areas will be used several times.  These include the Aronoff Center, School for the Creative and Performing Arts, Cincinnati Masonic Center and US Bank Arena.

Here is a list of specific parking and street restrictions you can expect:

Over-the-Rhine Parking Restrictions
Citizens should anticipate periodic parking restrictions in Over-the-Rhine for street sweeping on the following dates: July 5, 6, 7, 12, 13 and 14.

Additional Central Business District Restrictions
Additional periodic parking restrictions in the Central Business District should be anticipated on June 28, July 3, 5, 10 and 12.

Additional I-71 Restrictions
Drivers should anticipate overnight lane closures in the 3rd Street tunnel on July 9 as street cleaning will occur as part of an Ohio Department of Transportation Project.

Signs will be posted to alert drivers to the overnight parking restrictions.

To serve the needs of World Choir Games participants and Cincinnati residents traveling to the events, Metro will be providing a Downtown Shuttle with buses running every 10 minutes to various downtown performance locations.

The shuttle is $0.50 each way for regular passengers, and it is free for World Choir Games participants with special World Choir Games Metro passes.
