Campus Bulletins

Our campus community is reminded that the St Augustine campus is a No Thoroughfare Zone. This means that:

-          On Mondays to Fridays, except on public holidays, only authorised vehicles (those displaying valid UWI Vehicle Permits) are allowed to enter the campus via the North and South Entrances

-          Unauthorised vehicles (those without valid UWI Vehicle Permits) will be redirected to the Visitors’ Entrance, that is the Daaga Gate, where persons will be more rigorously screened before being allowed to proceed onto the campus

These measures are enforced to achieve greater control and monitoring of persons and vehicles entering the Campus, and to enhance the level of safety and security for the Campus Community.

Read on below for some additional reminders on other security measures.

Campus Speed Limit

You are reminded that a speed limit of 30 kilometres per hour is in effect on campus, and this must be observed by all motorists.

Motorists are encouraged to always drive at a speed that is safe, based on the prevailing weather and environmental conditions. Factors such as, weather, lighting, visibility and the presence of pedestrians and other vehicles on the roadways should be taken into account, and motorists should always drive at a speed that would allow them to stop, maneuver or react safely to hazards.
