Parking Changes at Regent College
Following its 2024 sale to Polygon Homes, the former parking lot site at Regent College has now been fenced off pending construction. While underground parking will be a feature of the new tower, that construction is expected to take 30 months to complete. In the meantime, visitors to Regent College should plan to make use of other parking options available on the wider UBC Campus, including the following options.
-
Metered parking: There are quite a few parking spots with paid meters on the side streets just behind Regent College—Western Parkway, Dalhousie Road, and Allison Road.
-
UBC hourly parking: UBC Parking operates two paid parking lots within a 5-minute walk of Regent College—the Health Sciences Parkade at the UBC Hospital, and the North Parkade behind the War Memorial Gym. Get info and directions for these and other UBC parking venues here.
-
Parking permits are available through UBC Parking. Find up-to-date rates on their website.
For Regent students, parking passes may be purchased for use at University Chapel (a ten-minute walk from Regent) for a month or a semester at a time. Find out more or contact University Chapel to secure your parking space. Day parking rates are not available at University Chapel.
Regent continues to be well served by a number of bus lines with frequent service to and from the UBC campus. For more information regarding visiting Regent College, including via public transit, please consult this page on our website.
We understand that these changes are inconvenient for some Regent community members, and we appreciate your patience during this time of transition from old to new parking accommodations.
