Parking & License Plate Recognition

All of the parking facilities are using license plate recognition with the exception of:

  • Diamond Health Care Centre Parkade (switching TBD)
  • Innomar Clinics
Burnaby General Construction

Construction continues at the main entrance at Burnaby General. Drop-offs have been at the Emergency entrance.

We understand that the main entrance can be used; however, if you are using the Emergency entrance, we are authorized for the parking lot in that area. If you need to park long-term and utilize a parking stall, Fraser Health Authority prefers you find an available space in the parkade.

Parking Procedure

Drivers must display mirror hang tags at all times while transporting patients to treatment centres. Consistent use helps avoid parking tickets and operational issues. If you need a replacement hang tag, please email supplies@vcdsbc.ca.
