Weekend Parking and Access Restrictions
There are a number of events happening on campus this Homecoming weekend that will affect traffic flow and parking on campus.
Friday, September 27, 2013
On Friday, vehicle access to the Fort Garry campus and on-campus parking will be restricted between 5:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. due to an event at Investors Group Field.
There will be no access restrictions for those travelling to and from campus on foot, by bike or by bus.
Those students, staff and faculty members travelling to campus by car between 5:30 p.m. and 11 p.m. will require a valid U of M parking permit and must enter via Kings Drive. This dedicated entrance is for U of M permit holders only, providing a shorter, easier route of entry. After 5:30 p.m., permit holders wishing to access campus via University Crescent or Chancellor Matheson will be rerouted to the Kings Drive entrance.
If you are unsure where the Kings Drive entrance is located, or how to access it, please follow this link to view a detailed map: http://goo.gl/maps/rh4qI
Those with a U of M parking permit can use any of the following lots, regardless of the letter that appears on their pass:
- A Lot
- B Lot
- L Lot
- AC Lot (southeast corner of Freedman Crescent)
- CTC Lot at the Crop Technology Centre

Terry's CAUSE on Campus
This five-kilometre fun walk, roll, or run in support of The Terry Fox Foundation will take place on the Fort Garry campus this Saturday beginning at 10 am. The event will not restrict access to the campus but there may be some delays at intersections during the race. The race will take place mostly on sidewalks throughout campus. However, in areas where there are no sidewalks - specifically Freedman Crescent and Saunderson Street - there will be pylons set up that will designate the race path as well as volunteers directing traffic.

Bisons Football Homecoming Game
The University of Manitoba Bisons take on the Regina Rams at 1 p.m. Saturday at Investors Group Field. The Event Day parking plan is not in effect on Saturday, although a greater amount of vehicle traffic can be expected. Parking on campus is free and open to all, except in marked residence lots, the University Parkade and N Lot, which is located beside the Administration Building.
