Snow Removal Crew


Have you seen our awesome snow removal crew out and about on campus?  They do such a great job making campus safe for us on snowy winter days. This crew is made up of three very dedicated departments on campus.



Transportation Crew
This crew consists of 7 full time employees while other facility maintenance employees are recruited from other departments to plow snow in 12 hr. shifts. They keep University maintained roads by the hospital and around campus open, high use parking lots, moving snow piles to improve parking access and to improve traffic and pedestrian flow. Weekend snow removal is performed as needed to all roads and parking lots. Transportation works closely with parking services to respond to their customers’ needs.



Roads and Parking lots
·         8.7 miles of roads.
·         Parking lots : 182 acres
·         90 total parking lots


Landscape Maintenance
This crew consists of 51 employees. They hand shovel stairs, entrances, curb cuts, handicap ramps, de-ice sidewalks, confined spaces, narrow ramps and small walks with trucks and golf carts, plow sidewalks and patios, and assist in parking lots as needed. 


Stairs, walks, ramps
·         Sidewalks: 61 miles of sidewalk
·         807 sets of stairs
·         182 buildings
·         63 ADA ramps

Custodial Services

This crew takes care of the entrance ways and walkways to the entrances for 112 buildings on campus. They use salt and ice melt so that entry ways are safe for all of the people going in and out of buildings.
 
 
Let them know how much you appreciate all of their hard work and dedication!
