## Parking at 954 Green Valley Crescent

Rideau Canal is an attraction at 954 Green Valley Crescent in Central Experimental Farm, near Riverside Park. The site is 1.1 km from Riverside Park centre, so drivers using the address should plan for a short onward journey from the suburb centre.

The National Capital Commission identifies parking areas near Rideau Canal Skateway entrances and notes that O-Train stations are also located near entrances (ncc-ccn.gc.ca). The Skateway is weather dependent (ncc-ccn.gc.ca), making seasonal access particularly relevant for anyone driving to the canal.

## Seasonal Pressure Around the Rideau Canal Skateway

The canal's skating access is weather dependent (ncc-ccn.gc.ca), so parking demand is likely to be most relevant during periods when the Skateway is open.

Entrances include stairs and ramps, with the National Capital Commission listing 30 stairs and 5 access ramps along the Skateway (ccn-ncc.gc.ca). Parking areas are located near Skateway entrances (ncc-ccn.gc.ca), so drivers can choose an access point suited to their planned section of the route.

## Other Named Parking Near Central Experimental Farm

The National Capital Commission refers to parking areas near the Skateway entrances rather than identifying one central visitor car park for the full canal route (ncc-ccn.gc.ca). This makes the entrance selected for the visit important when comparing nearby parking.

Rideau Centre is associated with three parking garages called the Green Garage, Blue Garage and Red Garage (impark.com). These facilities are described as parking options for visitors staying at hotels near Rideau Centre (impark.com), so they are named alternatives in Ottawa but are not presented as parking at 954 Green Valley Crescent.

## Mooney's Bay Station and Walking Access

Mooney's Bay station is the nearest listed station to Rideau Canal, at 1.3 km away and a 17-minute walk. The station gives drivers and visitors a rail option for reaching the attraction in Central Experimental Farm, near Riverside Park.

The National Capital Commission says O-Train stations and parking areas are located near Skateway entrances (ncc-ccn.gc.ca). The Skateway also has entrances, stairs and ramps (ncc-ccn.gc.ca), which supports approaching the canal from different points after leaving rail or a nearby parking area.
