Construction will soon begin on a Grand River Transit bus terminal on the University’s east campus.

While this is certainly a transit gain for the University, it is also a loss of parking space in both Q Lot and Lot B that border the service roadway that runs through the east campus to the LRT tracks and the ring road. Parking Services have informed permit holders in B and Q lots of the impending construction and have asked them not to park in the designated areas.

Construction begins at 6:00 a.m. on Tuesday, July 2.

Construction is expected to last several months, and once the parking spaces are gone, they’re gone. Fencing will be installed along the service roadway marking the areas that will be part of the bus terminal construction. There will be no access in the middle of the construction area from Q-lot to the Engineering Buildings. All access through these areas will be directed via Phillip Street or Ring Road.

Pedestrian walkways will be available allowing people to cross the tracks to get to the East Campus buildings as well as the Engineering buildings.
