As of Friday, Jan. 24 at 8 a.m., there are more than 300 spots remaining in Zone 2 on the Brock University campus.

Should that lot fill up, the University has also secured the parking lot of the Catholic Diocese of St. Catharines at 3400 Merrittville Highway. The entrance to that lot is across the street from the former Lot V in Zone 2 and is just a 600-metre walk from the main entrance to the Roy and Lois Cairns Health and Bioscience Research Complex.

With the paved Diocese lot offering 120 overflow spaces, the University has now closed the gravel overflow lot at Merrittville Speedway and shuttle service will no longer be offered.

The Diocese lot will be available to Zone 2 permit holders from 7 a.m. until 11 p.m. Monday to Friday. It will be monitored by parking attendants and security. The recommended walking route for anyone parking in the temporary overflow lot is to follow the paved sidewalk path to the main pedestrian crossing on Glenridge Ave.
