In light of UG’s plans for a more structured parking system on campus, the University of Guyana’s Student Society (UGSS) is advocating for a shuttle system to be considered, to complement any centralized parking.
UGSS President Norwell Hinds told Stabroek News that the society last week approached the university’s Vice Chancellor (VC), Professor Ivelaw Griffith and Registrar, Nigel Gravesande, on the issue of parking on the campus.
“The university is in the process of developing a parking policy. We’ve asked to see that draft policy and to have input into that policy. We also have put on record that the issue of parking on this campus has to be dealt with in a much more structured and organized way, because it’s not only the issue of parking—parking infrastructure that is—but it’s also the issue of traffic controls and it’s about internal transit between the different points on the campus,” Hinds related.
