New Carpool Parking at Whistler Blackcomb
Whistler Blackcomb is excited to introduce a trial carpooling program in Winter 2024/25, which will apply to Upper Lot 7 and Creekside Garage level P1 on weekends and peak periods only between 6 and 11 AM. This trial program incentivizes carpooling by providing free priority parking access to vehicles with four or more occupants. After 11 AM, these lots will open to all vehicles, regardless of the number of passengers in the vehicle. Parking in both lots remains free at all times, without the need for reservations.
