After 6pm, park as long as you want. 3-6pm, no parking.

Same, thinking about that too. Parking spots are so tight, it's hard to get out. Any areas where there are less cars?


Also parked in the yellow card lot

Ontario is the one they made into bike city

Quebec and 50th alongside the church to main st usually have parking for early hour classes. If you have to park inside and pay i usually like to go underground or far side where no one parks. Parked with everyone else once and got a door ding
Luckily I dont have to deal with that anymore

I consistently see people parking in the residential zones! Usually you're safe because it's relies on homeowners to call in... unless the CoV happens to have officers roam around checking - only seen that happen once.

Mentioned before, parking on Cambie near 52-54th isn't bad! Only takes 5mins to walk to the A/B building if you cut through the golf course path.

I did that before for a few years, residential area. Parked a block away at this spot and never got in trouble. I parked there so often, people living around there thought I lived there and didn't bother caring.

What about Main Street? Main and 51-53, near that Sunset community center. I believe street parking is like 2 hours the last time I've parked there. Not sure if parking rules have changed since then.

Campus is super crowded this semester for some reason. If you have a 10:30 class like me GG with finding any kind of parking.

If after waitlist ends and a spot opens is it first come first serve or still according to waitlist? Still neeed a spot in a very important class

Try 51st avenue east of main street; the first bit is 2hrs, but the rest aren't. Few of my friends used to park on 48th right near main street. I personally liked using 54th avenue west of Cambie cause it's relatively closer to the b building where I had class that time.

I think it's first come, first serve. I was 25th on the wait list for both classes and both professors were nice enough to do a system override since I went to the first class.

I'm actually very proud of langara and how far they have come. When I first started there, there wasnt really a campus life. I guess these last couple of years they have elected a very good student union. In addition to the very successful looking opening week, it used to be like hamburgers and no seating, no sponsor tents. Plus these past few years have seen an increase in free cake! I went last year even though I graduated and it was already looking good but this year looked bigger and better.

Probably safety concerns from people riding down while people walking in/out of the college. Miss those convenient spots.
