[4eyes] Fwd: Transportation & Parking Updates and Information

[Tobias Hollerer]

In case you skip over general department announcements:
> *Parking Structure 10 Speed Bumps: *As many regular users of this 
> parking structure have already noticed, we installed new speed bumps 
> and other safety measures in Parking Structure 10 several weeks ago. 
> We received, and we have carefully considered, many very thoughtful 
> comments about the speed bumps, as well as many requests to replace 
> these new bumps with a “lower impact” alternative. By popular demand, 
> we will be removing the existing bumps very soon. Over the next 
> several weeks we plan to obtain various alternative speed bumps to 
> test in the structure (we will likely test at one or two key 
> locations). We encourage continued response and feedback from users 
> during this test period. We installed these speed bumps after 
> receiving numerous comments about excessive speeds in the parking 
> structure. The safety of everybody entering our facilities is our 
> foremost concern, and we will continue to try to find the appropriate 
> speed control equipment to maintain public safety while removing any 
> unnecessary inconvenience and annoyance. Thank you for your patience 
> as we work through this test!

Thanks everyone who participated in the petition. Now let's see what the 
future brings :-/

> Phase I of the new meters will be in the following locations:
>
> §Along Ocean Road in front of Hosford Clinic and Social Science & 
> Media Studies building
>
> §Along Arts Lane in front of Koegel Autism Center & Gevirtz School of

> *Parking Permit Dispenser Installation: *Additional permit dispensers 
> will be installed in Parking Lots 3, 6, 27, 38 and the Information 
> Kiosk in University Plaza. The installation of these additional permit 
> dispensers will offer customers added convenience of additional 
> locations throughout campus. We anticipate the completion of this 
> project to be the first week of August.
>
> *New 15-Day Night & Weekend Permits: *In an effort to improve customer 
> convenience we will be reducing the length of the multi-day Night & 
> Weekend permits offered from the parking permit dispensers from 30 
> days (for $16) to 15 days (for $8). This change will improve 
> convenience and allow customers more flexibility. The 15-Day Night & 
> Weekend permit will be available at all campus permit dispensers 
> beginning August 1, 2014.
