I nned to go to the Juravinski Centre next week. What options do I have for parking?

Do i have to user the bunker parking that costs a fortune? or is there alternate "free" parking I can use for my bike?

I know there is meter parking but it is scarce so i am not banking on gettng one of these spots

I was there last week and asked security about parking the motorcycle there, they said there is one of the parking garages that allows them, but I couldn't find it. Personally, I'd just park in the front bunker on Charlton and go around the gate. There's plenty of room.

If you were on Charlton, you were at St Joseph's Hosp, (which has a Juravinski cancer clinic in it) not the Juravinski Hospital which is on Concession, up the mtn (formerly known as the Nora Francis, then the Henderson, now the Juravinski).

As for parking @ Juravinski, there are 2 bunkers, one across the street, and one just west of the hospital. Meter parking everywhere on the streets in and around the hospital.
If I was on my bike going there, I'd hit up the 7 - 11 on the corner of Upper Sherman & Concession, right across the street from the hospital. They have 'paid' parking there, and you can tell the dude inside to keep his eye on your ride. Safer (IMO) than meters or bunker parking.

Gary, that sounds like a good plan

If you want free you will be parking on a side street about 10 city blocks away.

If going to the Juravinski Cancer Centre on Concession, there's also parking on the brow, behind the hospital and JCC. Some 2 hour sections and further west, no signs. Also on Poplar Ave. I've seen motorcycles parked, in between cars, in these areas. The Big Bear/Bee (formerly 7-Eleven) store on the corner of Upper Sherman and Concession definately does have paid parking. I have a bird's eye view to this lot and have seen many people ticketed. It's almost as though the owner has the parking authority on "speed dial". Hmmm....
