Where is BCIT?

BCIT is located on the southeast corner of Willingdon Ave (a major N-S street) and Canada Way (a major E-W street) in Burnaby.

Parking

When night classes are being held, parking at BCIT may be difficult to find.  If you're feeling lucky, you can try looking for (free) parking on Willingdon Ave in front of BCIT.  However, it's generally very crowded so don't count on finding a spot!

In the past, we've found that parking can usually be found in the rear of the campus, as indicated on the BCIT campus map above.  One option is to proceed along Canada Way and turn south onto Carey Ave. (one block east of Willingdon).   You may park in any of the student or staff lots for a flat evening rate of $1.50.  Please check all parking signage carefully and obtain a ticket from the dispensing machine.
 

via Skytrain

Coming from the East:
From Metrotown Station catch the 130 Kootenay Loop.

Coming from the West:
From Nanaimo Station catch the 25 Brentwood Mall (make sure it's not the 25 UBC!).

from UBC

You could simply catch the 25 Brentwood Mall, but will almost certainly find it faster to take the 99 B-line express bus to Brentwood Mall and transfer to a BCIT-bound bus (see below).

via B-Line
Catch an eastbound 99 B-Line express bus to Brentwood Mall and transfer to a 25 UBC or 130 Metrotown. (note: some B-Line buses only go to Broadway Station. To get to Brentwood, the bus has to say either Brentwood or Lougheed)

* feel free to ask the driver to call out the appropriate stop once you get on the right bus !

For specific timetable information regarding any of these buses check out their individual web pages :
25 - BRENTWOOD MALL/UBC
99 - LOUGHEED MALL/UBC (B-LINE)
130 - METROTOWN STN/KOOTENAY LOOP

or call 521-0400.  For B-Line information, call 540-3420.
