Zone 2 parking permit holders coming onto the Brock University campus this week should watch for live updates on parking capacity.

Although there have been some parking disruptions as a result of construction on Canada Games Park, nearly 700 spaces are now available in Zone 2 at the south end of the main Brock campus.

Updates on how many spaces are available will be provided on the Brock University Twitter account as well as on the University homepage at Brocku.ca

While there was parking available in Zone 2 every day during the first week of Winter Term, traffic volumes are expected to rise starting Monday, Jan. 13, as a full schedule of lectures, labs and seminars gets underway.

If Zone 2 fills up, parking will also available in the temporary overflow lot which has been set up at Merrittville Speedway, located at 2371 Merrittville Highway, about five kilometres south of campus.

Zone 2 parking permit holders may park in the overflow lot and will then be driven to campus on free shuttle buses. Those without a permit can buy a daily $6 pass for the Merrittville lot through the HONK mobile app using Zone ID 2458. Parking attendants will monitor the temporary lot and security will be patrolling the area.
