SIGNAGE/LIGHTING/MAP/SAFETY

  • New, visible signs are needed in all lots which clearly state who can park there, and at what hours.
  • The college websites should note that signs on Rte. 123 will direct people to parking for major evens and visiting days. Currently the website directs visitors to G lot.
  • Any designated spaces within lots (car pools, resident faculty/staff, handicapped) need to be clearly signed and require a permit to be visible on the vehicle dashboard.
  • Maps (lighted or placed near existing lights) of campus parking lots should be placed in all lots so people can find other alternatives if a particular lot is filled.
  • A printed map of parking lots, which indicates who can park in each one, should be distributed with permits and made easily available on campus.
  • Better signage for Lot P is needed, on Fillmore Drive as well as Pine Street.
  • Additional lighting is needed on the path from P lot to campus and from G lot near crosswalks.
  • Crosswalks from G lot on Route 123 need to be moved and repainted. Visible markers are needed on Route 123 to make cars stop at crosswalks.
  • Publicize the presence of cameras and emergency phones for escort calls to Public Safety in G and P lots so students are aware of these safety systems.
  • Public Safety/Physical Plant to conduct a safety survey of all paths from parking lots and the lots themselves to determine the need for additional lighting and call boxes.
