Carleton University is a partner in several sustainable transportation programs within the City of Ottawa. To facilitate your commute to and from the Carleton University campus, you can take advantage of the various programs that we have partnered with and developed to promote a cleaner and more sustainable environment. Please see below for more information on your commuting options.
Walking to Campus
Walking is the most basic method of transportation. Millions of people around the world walk to get to and from work, school or wherever they need to go. The City of Ottawa and the National Capital Commission (NCC) have provided good infrastructure for those persons walking along city streets and the alongside the canal to get to Carleton University. Once on the campus, there is a well maintained designated “Safe Path” walkway to follow as you navigate your way across the campus. Anyone living within 30 minutes from campus should consider walking. It is good for the environment and it is good for you — get active!
