Shopping and Council Parking Around 72 Avenue
Drivers looking beyond the campus can use the surrounding Newton town-centre parking options, including shopping-centre car parks and council-managed parking areas.
A short free period can work for collecting supplies or meeting someone, but a full day on campus is better matched with a KPU permit or paid stall. The campus is 3.1 km from North Surrey centre, placing the commercial parking areas closer to local services than to the university entrance.
The Busiest Parking Periods at the Newton Campus
Parking demand is strongest during fall, spring and summer semesters, when the campus permit options are structured around active teaching terms (kpu.ca). Weekday arrivals are particularly sensitive to class-change periods, because students and staff are competing for designated stalls rather than using unrestricted roadside space.
KPU’s parking rules require vehicles to park in designated stalls, and overnight parking is prohibited (kpu.ca). A driver attending an event or an early class is better served by arranging a campus permit or selecting an off-campus space before arriving.
Parksy Spaces Near Kwantlen Polytechnic University
Parksy lists six priced spaces near the campus in Newton. The closest is a secure daily space at 12906 68 Avenue, 780 m away, priced at $20 a day. Students attending for a single day and visitors coming for an appointment are the best fit for this option.
Monthly choices include a space 850 m away at $150 a month, another 1.1 km away at $100 a month, and an outdoor space 1.5 km away at $52.58 a month.

Rail and Walking Access to the Newton Campus
The campus is in Newton, near North Surrey, at 12666 72 Avenue. North Surrey centre is 3.1 km away, which makes local bus or car access more relevant than treating the university as a station-side destination.
For a rail-based journey, drivers can combine a station trip with a Parksy space or local transit connection for the final leg. The nearby Parksy listings range from 780 m to 1.5 km from the campus, so the secure daily space at 12906 68 Avenue offers the shortest listed walk after parking.
