As the days get shorter and evenings get darker earlier, it’s important to keep these safety tips in mind when traveling on and around campus.

With the start of a new academic year underway, The Ohio State University is encouraging the university community to pay attention and travel safely.

Whether you drive, walk, bike or ride a scooter to class or work, do it safely. Students, faculty, staff and visitors share the road and the responsibility.

Commuters are asked to look out for fellow Buckeyes and avoid distractions. Remove earbuds and look up from your phone. Be mindful around construction zones and obey signage.

Motorists and CABS riders are encouraged to allow additional time for travel as students, faculty and staff return to campus for fall semester (classes begin August 23) . Learn about CABS route changes and download the Ohio State app for real-time CABS bus tracking. Visit the traffic impact map for construction that may impact your commute.

Ohio State student artists participated in the first ever sidewalk chalk art contest in conjunction with Share the Road. On September 9, students arrived at the Wexner Center of the Arts Plaza to chalk their safety related artwork for a chance to win a prize.

The Ohio State University is a multi-modal campus. When walking, biking, scooting or driving, we all share the road and responsibility in assuring it’s done safely, so look out for your fellow Buckeyes.
