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.
