BICYCLE PARKING Bicycles are not permitted inside buildings with the exception of the parking garage which is located in the basement of Sargent Hall, 120 Tremont Street. There are two bicycle racks located in the Sargent Hall parking garage for students and staff members of Suffolk University and Suffolk Law School. All students and staff who wish to use the bicycle rack in the garage will be required to swipe their ID at the main Sargent Entrance prior to accessing the building. Bike riders can access the parking garage by utilizing campus assistance call box located on the wall at the entrance to the parking garage off of Hamilton Place. Bike riders entering the garage must check in with the dispatch officer assigned to the garage. Bicycles must be properly secured. Any bicycles left over 30 days will be removed. We strongly recommend always securing your bicycle every time, whether in the garage or outside of the university. We also recommend a U-shaped lock for bicycles due to the sturdy design and increased security it provide over a wire or chain lock. MOTOR DRIVEN VEHICLES Use or possession of motor driven vehicles on University property such as, but not limited to, hoverboards, scooters, mopeds, Segways, or electric skateboards is prohibited . The use of mobility scooters such as wheelchairs is permitted.
