Bicycle garage

In order to preserve good order and make space for as many bicycles as possible, the rules needs to be followed:

  • The bicycle garage is intended only for those who have their physical workplace in Biomedicum.
  • The bicycle garage may only be used for temporary storage of your bike, i.e. over the day or until the next day.
  • No longterm parking is allowed.
  • The bicycle should be placed in a bicycle rack. It is forbidden to park bikes along the wall, in the corridor or by the doors since this might obstruct evacuation routes.
  • If the garage is full there are other bicycle parkings on campus, for instance outside the Biomedicum entrances at Solnavägen 7 and 9.

The door leading from the bicycle garage in to floor 2 will be locked between:

  • Weekdays, i.e. Monday through Friday between 19:00-06:00
