Bicycles

Bicycles on campus are not required to display a permit. They should observe all rules of traffic and park at bike racks, which are located outside nearly every building on campus. We recommend that bicycle riders register their bike with KU Public Safety and use a secure lock such as a U-bar lock when parking at the bike rack.

Bicycles are allowed to drive onto Jayhawk Boulevard during restricted hours, but must abide by all traffic rules and regulations. Bicycles should not be ridden on the sidewalks.

KU's Center for Sustainability has developed a website about biking at KU, where you can find information about bicycling on campus and around the community.

Motorcycles & Mopeds

The cost of an annual student or staff Motorcycle/Moped permit is $83, and it may be purchased either by itself or together with a regular vehicle permit.

Student cycle permits may park in any of the areas designated for Moped parking, (shown on the map by a red bike icon), except for lots 3, 10, 12, and 35, as those areas require a Staff Cycle Permit. Students with motorcycles or mopeds should be sure to read signs carefully before parking, as some areas are designated as shared Moped/Motorcycle parking but others are Moped only or Motorcycle only.

Motorcycles and mopeds are not allowed to park in either Allen Fieldhouse Parking Garage or Mississippi Street Parking Garage, or at bicycle racks, and will be ticketed for doing so.
