Road Conditions

Check out our Road Conditions site for up to the minute information about road conditions around Burnaby Campus. This site will also inform you of what facilities are open and running during adverse conditions.

A fun feature on this site is the live webcam (photos are taken every minute) of Convocation Mall and the Main Bus terminal. (Note from our past Parent Programs student staff member, Greg: "This is a personal favorite of my parents, who like to ‘check in on me' via webcam on a daily basis!")
