Bike shelter image

The Department of Transportation Services offers covered bicycle and motorized cycle parking space for rental on a semesterly or yearly basis. These group lockers, which are located in Mowatt Lane Garage, will provide parking spaces within a caged area for bicycles and motorized cycles. While these lockers are equipped with cameras, renters will be required to secure their property to the racks in cages, and will be responsible for locking the area upon exit.

Rental Process:

Lockers can be rented from the Department of Transportation Services by visiting the DOTS office during regular business hours. Bicycles and motorized cycles must be registered with DOTS prior to entering into a rental agreement. Persons will be required to complete a registration form, and will be given the current combination for the locker.

Code Changes:

Codes will be changed at the discretion of DOTS and will be e-mailed via the e-mail address supplied on the registration form. It is the responsibility of the renter to ensure that DOTS has a current e-mail address that is checked frequently.

Enforcement of Lockers:

Each person will be given the current combination code upon registration and will be held responsible for maintaining the integrity of the locker and the code. If breaches of the code are observed, a new code may be issued without warning by DOTS. New codes will be distributed via e-mail.

Customer Service Support:

Telephone support pertaining to the opening of lockers and retrieving of codes will be available Monday-Friday, 8:15 a.m. – 4 p.m. when the University is open. If a renter forgets or did not receive a newly changed code, he/she may call (301) 314-PARK (7275), and complete a verification process before the new code is given.
