City of Saint John crews will be on site beginning Wednesday, July 16 to develop the current grassed parking area at the corner of Tilley Lane and King Street W. Crews will be laying crushed rock to create a new parking surface for the use of Market Place patrons.

Vehicle owners accessing the building may continue to park in spaces available on Tilley Lane and on-street parking on nearby streets. The work is expected to take a few days to complete. Thank you to the City of Saint John and Port Saint John for their partnership and continued support of the Carleton Community Centre, Market Place Wellness Clinic and the West Side Food Bank.

NOTICE TO PATRONS (CCC, Foodbank, & Market Place Wellness) - No Parking in Port Lots

Vehicle owners are advised that parking is not permitted in the lots across from the Centre. These lots are owned by the Port of Saint John and reserved for port employees. While spaces may be vacant and tempting to use, they must be available to these employees for several shift calls throughout the day.

The Port of Saint John has been a generous and supportive neighbour of the Carleton Community Centre, the Market Place Splash Pad and the Carleton Community Garden for many years. As port operations continue to grow, let us do our part to support them.

Parking for patrons of the Carleton Community Centre, Market Place Wellness Centre, and the West Side Food Bank is available on the south side of Tilley Lane, or on our nearby streets. Parking is not permitted on the north side of Tilley Lane (port side) or in front of the waste disposal bins. Please see the attached.

We thank our patrons for their cooperation. Together, we can all take steps to be good neighbours.

From May 26 - June 1, it is Disability Awareness Week in New Brunswick. In that spirit, let's discuss some unique challenges that women with disabilities face when it comes to intimate partner violence:

🟣 People may assume that a woman with a disability does not have an intimate partner, and for that reason may not realize abuse is happening.

🟣 Women with disabilities are more likely to experience dominating and abusive behaviours by their partner or caretaker.

🟣 Women with disabilities face unique barriers when it comes to leaving an abusive relationship, such as difficulties in accessing transportation, lack of accessibility in shelters, fear of losing their disability benefits and more.

When it comes to disabilities, don't assume. Abuse doesn't discriminate.
