ST. GEORGE — As far as traffic and parking for this October's PGA tournament is concerned, one key phrase is emerging: It's not going to be so bad.
Local officials, Santa Clara-Ivins Police and Fire and Black Desert Resort representatives are still working on the final plan and logistics of the parking and traffic plan for the Oct. 7-13 PGA Tour Black Desert Championship at the Black Desert Resort in Ivins.
The plan coming together reportedly indicates they will be able to accommodate "thousands" of cars on site – including in a nearly complete underground parking structure. The large parking lots at the Tuachan Amphitheatre in Ivins and Tech Ridge in St. George will be utilized with shuttle busses transporting spectators to the course.
Black Desert has also brought in staff who have previously handled traffic and parking for PGA tournaments in Southern California where the courses were nestled among residential neighborhoods.
