Good for your heart and great for the environment, University District’s focus on feet-first commuting and walkability redefines what an easy-to-access and eco-conscious community can look like. With everything in walking distance and multiple alternatives to a foot commute in abundance, the days of living life behind the steering wheel are soon to be behind you.
While you don’t need to own a car for life at University District, we know work commutes and weekend adventures sometimes call for wheeled support. There are countless bike racks to safely park your two-wheeled companion, carshare parking spots throughout the community, and Calgary transit routes to get you where you need to go. And if that weekend adventure plan calls you out of the city, there’s easy access to the mountains via the TransCanada Highway.
We’re feet first, parking spaces second. University District’s design minimizes street level parking to give it a distinctive, uncrowded, wide-open feel. And, because we know that Calgary has vastly expanded and can require a vehicle, plenty of underground parking is located along the Retail Main Street beneath Save-On-Foods and Cineplex VIP Cinemas for visitors to the community.
Using Calgary Transit for your ‘getting around the city’ needs reduces your carbon footprint, contributing to minimizing greenhouse gas emissions and traffic congestion. And, with two LRT stations and several bus stops an easy walk away, staying connected with other communities and destinations you adore is a breeze…and a breath of fresh air.
