New Parking Lot Construction on Campus

(Thunder Bay - September 20, 2004) A new parking lot will be constructed on Lakehead University campus starting this week. This move is in response to students' need for additional parking space.

The parking lot will be constructed in the open field between the Bora Laskin Building and the existing P3 Parking Lot by ATAC. This lot should be completed in three weeks. This lot will alleviate the University's parking problems with the addition of approximately 200 parking spaces.

To assist some students with the financial burden of purchasing daily passes, 40 special daily passes will be available at the parking kiosk for $1. These passes will be good only for Lot 17 which is located at the rear of the Avila Building.

For more information, please call Jerry Murray, Manager, Security Services, at 343-8131.
