Parking Management
There are two components of parking for this project: residential parking and non-residential / visitor parking.
Residential parking: The 728 resident stalls will be gate and located on both parking levels wwith access to both ramps that connect to the surface road through the project.
Visitor parking: There are 15 stalls show on the surface road and 180 stalls on level 1 that are contiguous and linked to both ramps. This visitor parking must be managed via time limits to insure that it does not just become all-day employee parking.
Accordingly the following illustrates the type of time controls being proposed;
- server room reserved 24 hours: 2 stalls
- on-street 30 minute limit 8 am to 7 pm: 15 stalls
- parkade L1 public 2 hours limit 8 am to 7 pm: 140 stralls
- parkade L1 public 4 hours limit 8 am to 7 pm: 30 stralls
- parkade L1 reserved 7 am to 6 pm: 10 stralls (the 10 reserved stalls are for the possible use (possibly leased) by business owners or managers).
