Driving Responsibly

At TUS, we encourage all drivers to make safe, respectful, and environmentally conscious choices when travelling to and from campus:

  • Observe speed limits both on campus and nearby roads.
  • Share the road safely with pedestrians and cyclists.
  • Switch off your engine if waiting for more than a minute to cut down on emissions.
  • Respect our neighbours and community by avoiding unauthorised parking in residential areas.
  • Carpool where possible to reduce congestion and environmental impact.

Driving responsibly helps keep our campus safe, protects the environment, and strengthens our ties with the local community.
