Secure bicycle parking: projects and a subsidy from Wallonia
Aware that quality parking facilities are essential for the development of cycling to and on its campuses, ULiège will soon be making new secure facilities available to its community.
As a public university open to the world and is anchored in the scientific, cultural and economic development of its region, the University of Liège relies on its three pillars: teaching, research and civic engagement.
ULiège trains responsible citizens who are provided with cutting-edge knowledge and critical thinking, are able to share knowledge and can push forward an increasingly complex world.
ULiège develops and promotes excellence in research, multidisciplinary and direct engagement with its instruction.
Global exposure is a top priority at the University of Liège. The institution offers a wide range of international mobility opportunities to students, researchers and staff, enabling them to enhance their cross-disciplinary skills and language knowledge.
ULiège: an experience of daily living. Located in 3 cities and 4 campuses, the university is a key player in terms of the environment and mobility.
If you have the possibility, we invite you to share your car trips or to combine them with other modes of transportation to reach the ULiège campuses.
C
is aware of the importance that campus accessibility plays in the attractiveness of the Institution, ULiège is developing a number of actions and projects, gathered in an ambitious and intermodal mobility policy, with a view to facilitating and securing the travel of the members of the university community. One of the objectives of the mobility policy of the University of Liege is to reduce the number of vehicles on its campuses or to fight against the use of the car in autosolism.
The University of Liege has its own carpooling platform: the UGo platform.
This is reserved for all members of the ULiège community, its alumni, as well as members of the staff of the University Hospital of Liège. Since February 2018, it has also been open to agents of the city and CPAS of Liege, this partnership marking the beginning of the expansion of the carpooling platform. It was then expanded to the staff of the Province of Liège and students of the HEPL.
Currently, more than 4,000 users are registered on the platform.
The objectives of UGo are obvious: to respond to occasional (public transport disruptions) and recurrent (CO2 emissions in urban areas, traffic congestion during rush hours, etc.) mobility problems.
TheUGo platform also offers the possibility of creating recurring trips. All that remains is for users to take care of the association proposals that are submitted to them. The process is simple, fully integrated into the platform, and can be easily used as a daily mode of transportation.
To support the practice of carpooling, Wallonia has set up a network of secure, accessible carpooling parking lots close to major roads, allowing carpoolers to easily reach a common meeting point and begin their carpooling.
Today, more than 2,500 spaces in 92 parking lots are available free of charge!
