Bicycle parking and facilities
On campus, you can only park your bicycle in an approved bicycle parking area.
UQ Security will remove your bicycle if it’s:
- parked in an unapproved area, such as a hallway, emergency exits and escape pathways.
- locked to a railing, ramp, bollard, lamp post, or trees, or
- left unattended in an approved area for two weeks.
If your bicycle has been removed by Security, you will have to show proof of ownership to get it back. If this is your second offence, you may be issued with a fine.
We’re trying to keep our campuses accessible and safe for everyone. To find approved bicycle parking, read the information below.
