Traffic Disruptions
Work in and around Windsor Car Park may from time to time affect traffic. Flag people will be on hand for more serious disruptions.
For your safety, please observe all posted signs and traffic-control measures. Parking Services will monitor traffic closely and provide traffic support as necessary.
South Campus Traffic
Lot J has been expanded, and some changes in traffic flow have been made to keep things running smoothly. Please observe posted signs.
Due to safety concerns over vehicle speeds both within J lot and the travel to and from the area itself, U of A Protective Services has launched a traffic calming initiative for the area. As such, in the upcoming weeks you will notice some changes to traffic control along 115A street. We would ask that you obey the posted speed limits (30 km/hr) and traffic control devices when coming and going from the South Campus.
Vehicle Security Awareness
The University of Alberta's Parking Services and University Protective Services are working with the Edmonton Police Service to help them promote their city-wide campaign against theft from vehicles.
In coming weeks, you will see members of the Edmonton Police Service as well as staff from University Protective Services at select parking lots around campus reminding staff and students to protect their belongings.
While the University of Alberta's parking lots are regularly patrolled by University Protective Services, you play a key role in protecting your vehicle.
You can keep your car and valuables safe by following these simple tips from the Alberta Motor Association:
- Park in a sensible place, avoiding unlit areas at night.
- Remove the ignition key and activate the steering lock.
- Lock your doors and close all windows.
- Hide your valuables out of sight or take them with you.
- Take extra keys out of your vehicle.
- Do not leave your insurance or registration in your vehicle.
- Do not leave your garage door opener in plain sight.
- Always replace the lighter plug once you're finished powering accessories like GPS, satellite radios, and/or radar detectors. Leaving the plug open signals that you may have equipment worth stealing.
- Use an anti-theft device on your steering wheel.
If you do experience a break-in while parked on campus property, please contact University Protective Services immediately at 780.492.5050. We thank you for your attention to this matter.
