## Parking at Emily Carr University of Art and Design

Student, faculty and staff parking passes are available for the underground P2 parking area at 565 Great Northern Way, directly beside the campus (ecuad.ca). The Facilities Office manages parking services and handles requests or renewals for underground passes (ecuad.ca). For drivers visiting the university, underground parking is in the building directly in front of the campus, with vehicle access from Carolina Street (ecuad.ca).

Accessible parking spaces are available in the underground lot at 565 Great Northern Way. A valid SPARC BC permit or equivalent is required for those spaces (ecuad.ca). The campus parking area is limited, so a pass-based option suits regular students and staff better than relying on occasional availability. The nearby underground facility is also the most direct choice for visitors arriving by car, with the Carolina Street entrance providing the stated vehicle access.

## Busy Parking Periods Around the ECUAD Campus

Parking demand is likely to be strongest during teaching terms, when students, faculty and staff are using the campus and nearby underground parking. ECUAD identifies parking as limited and provides passes for students, faculty and staff through its Facilities Office (ecuad.ca). Drivers attending exhibitions, lectures or other university events should allow for the possibility that the closest spaces are already in use.

The Carolina Street approach is therefore the key access point for drivers heading to the official facility.
