Campus Public Safety will be conducting its annual bicycle roundup starting Wednesday, May 3.
Here are the details:
- At the end of spring semester, a university-wide bicycle cleanup is conducted. Bikes that are illegally parked, unregistered or inoperable will be impounded. Bicycle racks need to be cleared to do routine maintenance to the bike racks and surrounding areas.
- Bicycles may not be stored on campus during the summer semester. Claims for impounded bikes may be made at the CPS office.
- If you are staying on campus over the summer and plan to keep a bike here, please stop by Campus Public Safety to get a sticker ID. Move your bike to the rack that is closest to your summer housing.
- Impounded bicycles will be kept at CPS for 60 days and then donated to local charities at the discretion of the Campus Public Safety office. Junk bikes will be recycled.
