Dismantling of Centre Market Parking Structure is slated to begin in March. The following is a schedule for the work:

  • Chapline Street between 20th and 22nd streets will be closed beginning March 4, 2024, for 11 months. Access will be maintained to the Wheeling Police Department Headquarters and Dr. Ganzer’s parking lots.
  • Demolition of the bridge from the former OVMC to the parking structure will begin on March 25, 2024.
  • Demolition will then move to the Wheeling Police Department side of the parking structure in mid-May 2024 with the side closest to Centre Wheeling Fellowship Church beginning in August 2024.
A parking garage.
Special support systems were installed a couple of years ago inside the Center Wheeling Parking Garage.
  • Dismantling along Market Street is planned for January 2025. There will be parking relocation for two two-week periods around that time. Two-way traffic will be maintained on Market Street at all times.
  • The dismantling of the center portion of the parking garage is slated to begin in February 2025.

The schedule was finalized this week and is subject to change but gives a guideline for the project’s major mileposts for the next 12 months. As the project moves along and as events warrant, this schedule will be updated.
