Directions & Parking

We want to help make getting to and driving on campus safe, easy, and enjoyable! Here is what you need to know:

There is a one-way ring road that circles the entire site; traffic flows counter-clockwise. This ensures the safe passage of everyone on site during construction. 

The Wayfinding Map will help you find the roadway entrance and parking area closest to where you are going. Please plan accordingly and follow the direction of one-way traffic flow. 

Choose from the following three roadway entrances, as seen on the Wayfinding Map:

• Oak Street Entrance


• Heather Street Entrance 


• 28th Avenue Entrance


• **New Entrance: Willow Street Entrance will be open Fall 2015, following completion of city works

Please note: The 28th Avenue Entrance is inaccessible from the east. Enter from the west (Oak Street).

Whether you arrive by transit, cycling, or carshare, we have services on site to support your choice.
