Bike owners who want to have their bike stored on campus for the summer may do so by contacting Parking Services. For $10, a bike will be stored from late May through Sept. 1 in a covered location on campus.

Beginning the Monday after Commencement, UD staff members will be tagging all bicycles in bike racks for removal from campus. Officials expect to begin removing bikes two-to-three days after they have been tagged.

Bicycles attached to anything other than a bike rack (i.e., railings, benches, trees) or causing safety concerns will be removed immediately. This practice will continue throughout the summer.
