Camosun encourages and supports the use of alternative modes of transportation to campus both in support of Go Green initiatives and because of the limited availability of parking spaces. Public transportation, bicycle and carpooling to campus are all viable options which reduce parking congestion and help the environment.

Camosun has adopted a Transportation and Parking Plan which addresses a variety of transportation issues identified by the Camosun community.
