as well as the aesthetic beauty of the University, all Proposers are reminded that the following
rules and considerations will be required when making deliveries to any University of
Connecticut campus:
‣ Driving speeds on campus must be kept at a maximum of 25 mph to ensure maximum
safety. Pedestrians have the right of way at all times.
‣ All traffic signs, lights or other indicators are to be obeyed. This is of utmost
importance given the amount of construction and pedestrians on campus.
‣ Driving on sidewalks, unless otherwise posted, is forbidden. Violators will be ticketed
and chronic violators may be barred from doing business with the University. In those
areas where sidewalk driving is permitted and required, drivers must employ adequate
skills so as to avoid driving on adjacent green spaces.
‣ It is preferable that deliveries to any facility loading dock be made utilizing a
maximum sized 24’, 6-wheel saddle truck. To facilitate other deliveries, it is
imperative delivery trucks have the capability to off load large quantities (pallets) in
short periods of time. Commissary warehouse deliveries must be limited to a
maximum of 50 cases delivered by saddle truck only.
