Media trucks lined the streets adjacent to Charlottesville Circuit Court Sunday afternoon in preparation for the first day of the George Huguely murder trial.

Fourth Street will be closed for the duration of the trial so satellite trucks will have a place to park during the trial.

Trucks from Washington D.C.'s WJLA and WUSA9, CourtTV and even the Charlottesville Newsplex truck could all be spotted outside. Members of national media outlets say parking is a major concern.

"Getting here early, just to get the parking location. Charlottesville is an older city, it has narrow roads. Even though they have done a wonderful job setting it up for an event like this, parking is still parking," said Kurt Brooks, from WUSA9.

Brooks says he'll be in Charlottesville for the entire duration of the trial, but other media outlets say they will only be here on eventful days, such as opening arguments and when the verdict is read.
