Getting Around

Ever dreamed of walking to the office? Kitchener’s downtown and neighborhood commercial districts are in close proximity to new residential developments and within easy walking distance of many historic single-family neighborhoods.

For those venturing a little further from home, nearby transportation alternatives include buses, taxis, car/limousine services, Via Rail and airports all within minutes of the downtown.

If you’re visiting or doing business here, there are plenty of reasons to take advantage of what downtown Kitchener has to offer. The city provides convenient, safe and accessible parking facilities available to those doing business or visiting our downtown.

There are over 3,000 off-street parking spaces and over 350 free two-hour on-street parking opportunities. A toonie in any one of the parking structures buys you a maximum of three hours. The City’s Parking Operations Division manages 22 municipal car parks and three parking.
