Getting Here
Here is the map link to our office in the heart of the Farmers Market. Find driving routes and parking instructions. To keep everyone safe, West Des Moines Police officers may ticket or tow vehicles parked:
- In front of public or private driveways or mailboxes
- On or across a sidewalk or on a crosswalk at an intersection
- Within or within 10 feet of an intersection of any street or alley
- Within 10 feet of a flashing beacon, stop or yield sign or traffic control signal located at the side of a street
We know finding parking can be an issue on event days. If wanting to avoid parking congestion, or driving isn’t an option, there are two DART routes available which pick up and drop off near Fifth and Elm streets: the Ingersoll/Valley Junction Local Route 11 and the West Des Moines Loop Local Route 72. These routes will be redirected during Farmers Markets.
