Getting to Regent College during the Olympics

Obviously, a major event such as the 2010 Games will have an impact on traffic in the Vancouver region. As we are so close to a major venue, there will be traffic closures and changes to the roads around Regent College and on the UBC campus. For more information on how this may affect your travel to the College during the Games please see the TravelSmart 2010 and UBC 2010 websites.

For general directions to Regent College please see our Getting to Regent page. However, please keep in mind that with road closures you may be rerouted, especially when you arrive on the UBC campus. Consult the above websites for more details, or download the UBC campus map that includes road closure information.
