Bicycle parking
The university has excellent facilities for anyone cycling to work, including those who have their own bicycles and park them in one of our 3,000 bicycle racks, or those who opt for a city bike.
You will find bike racks everywhere at the UiO. At Blindern alone we are able to accommodate almost 2,000 bikes and you will find bike racks outside every entrance.
Make sure you do not park your bicycle in a way that blocks footpaths and entrances, or gets in the way of general traffic. Driving or parking your bicycle or scooter inside the buildings is not permitted. Bicycles are parked at your own risk. Please be considerate to pedestrians when cycling on the footpaths. In places where there are a lot of pedestrians, we advise you to push your bike.
Locked and covered bicycle parking
You will find locked bicycle parking under cover in several locations on campus. Please note that long-term bicycle parking, such as through the winter months, is not permitted. The Estate Department is currently working to facilitate for more locked and covered bicycle parking.
