Locking your bike is important if you want to keep it safe. While locking a bike to a building’s access ramp is often convenient, it causes an obstruction which may impede a person with a disability’s ability to enter or exit a building. It is also illegal. One way you can help keep the campus more accessible is to report when a bicycle is attached to a ramp. 

 

For the Athens Campus: 

• Call the Ohio University Police Department at 740-593-1911.
