Service Update

The Parking Services team, in collaboration with our ITS department, have recently installed new parking gates in Lot 4 that provide increased security and ease of use for our campus visitors.

Lot 4 is primarily used by clients of our Restaurant International and Pro Physio, and we have worked closely with those areas to ensure that a complimentary parking validation system is in place for clients actively using those services. Restaurant International and/or Pro Physio clients should bring the ticket they are issued upon entry at the parking gate with them and present it to the business they are visiting for validation.

The validation is only active for the time spent within the business (3 hours for Restaurant International and 2 hours for Pro Physio). If you are parked in Lot 4 outside of these validation periods, a parking rate of $6 per hour will apply, with no daily maximum.

For those looking for alternative hourly or daily parking options, please review the “short term” parking options on our Parking Map, or park and pay directly using the Honk Mobile parking app.

During this time of transition, our team will be monitoring activity in the lot and will be assisting customers should they experience difficulties.

If you have any questions, please contact us at parking@algonquincollege.com.

During the week of April 15, Algonquin College Parking Services is completing parking lot upgrades in the Visitor Lot (Lot 7) and Lot 4.

Part of these upgrades is to install new parking gates, with increased security, that allow for payments by credit, debit, access card, and guest pass. Cash payments will no longer be accepted in this lot, but informed by customer feedback, the option to pay with debit has been added. Visitors paying by debit or credit will have the option to pay by inserting their card and entering a pin or tapping with their card or mobile device.

For those who have purchased Visitor Lot guest passes to be used by guests to the College, you would have already received an email with instructions on how to replace those passes as old passes will stop working on April 22, 2024. If you did not receive an email, please complete this form and our team will be in touch to replace your passes.

During this time of transition, our team will be monitoring activity in the lot and will be assisting customers should they experience difficulties.

To help meet the increasing demand for EV charging on the Ottawa Campus, a collaboration between Facilities Management and Parking Services has delivered eight new EV charging stations in the southwest corner of lot 9 (attached to S Building).

Funded partly by the Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program (ZEVIP) run by Natural Resources Canada, anyone who has paid for parking, and is actively charging an EV or PHEV can use their ChargePoint account to charge their vehicle for up to two hours.

This addition of EV charging stations increased the total on the Ottawa Campus to 12 and furthers the College’s commitment to sustainability.

If you have any questions about the new EV chargers, please contact Facilities Management Service Desk at 7710@algonquincollege.com.
