Go Green!

Take the bus to the Library - it's convenient and affordable.  Go to the Red Deer Transit page for more information.  Or ride your bike; we have bike racks outside all of our entrances.

There are also outdoor pay lots close by, across 49 Street and 49 Avenue.  And there is two-hour metered parking ($1.00 per hour) on the streets adjacent to the Library: across 49 Street and on both sides of 48 Ave. and Ross Street.  Beware the very efficient Parking Commissionaires! But parking in the outdoor lots and meters is free after 5:00 p.m., and on weekends.

Parking in the lay-by immediately in front of the Library on 49 Street is for 10 minutes only.  There is also a handicapped space immediately in front of the 49 Street entrance.  This is for vehicles with officially-approved handicapped stickers only, and is strictly enforced by the City's commissionaires.
