Construction update:
As of March 11, 2024, sections of 99 Street (north of 102A Avenue) and 103A Avenue (between 99-100 Street) are closed to vehicle traffic due to underground pedway construction. This includes a temporary closure of the accessible parking stalls near the museum's West entrance for the duration of construction.
Visitors can find accessible parking at the following nearby public parkades:
- City Hall Parkade – five accessible stalls
- Library Parkade – 13 accessible stalls
- Canada Place Parkade – six accessible stalls
- Edmonton City Centre West Parkade – 11 accessible stalls
Each of the above parkades has its own pricing rates, and the stalls are not specifically reserved for Royal Alberta Museum visitors.
