Civic Parkade closed effective immediately

As of Friday August 24th the Civic Parkade is closed effective immediately.

Millennium Parkade Construction

Winnipeg Parking Authority is currently upgrading traffic drive aisles, underground piping and conducting other site improvements at the Millennium Library parkade. The parkade will remain open during these upgrades, which is expected to take one year’s time. The first phase of the project will begin on January 18th on the lower level of the parkade which will be closed in its entirety from January to April 2013. During this time there may be limited space for transient users of the parkade, however there will be space at all times for monthly permit holders or customers with NHL parking permits. Once the lower level work is complete, the majority of the parkade will be re-opened for public use. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your continued patronage. For more information please contact 311.
