Parking woes hit Douglas County as the courthouse lot shuts down Sept. 1 for expansion—20 spots to 36, with work wrapping by November—but 18 new spaces open nearby at the JLEC. Meanwhile, Ninth Street’s road closures may soon ease as the Jayhawk Watershed Project advances, and Watson Park’s basketball court gets a replacement. Lawrence Public Schools faces backlash over bus chaos with a new provider, causing delays and longer commutes.
