Work has commenced to extend West 5 (X8) carpark to create 746 spaces, increasing the total capacity of West 5 to approximately 1330. The additional spaces will maintain the campus parking balance when South 2 (C2, C3 and E1) is demolished to allow construction of the previously announced project at 8-10 University Avenue.

West 5 will be extended northward toward Culloden Road with a new access off Link Road and internal connections to the existing carpark. The extension will be constructed of grass reinforced mesh with bitumen roadways similar to the existing car park, and include pedestrian walkways, lighting, CCTV cameras and help points.

Parking at the existing section of West 5 will not be affected by these works, and University permit holders may continue to access the car park via Link Road and Gymnasium Road. Weather permitting, the expanded carpark is scheduled to be be open for use in February 2018.
