Sustainable commuting and service transport
What is Ghent University doing to accelerate the shift towards sustainable mobility? What happens on your campus? And how can you get started yourself?
Mobility plan
Ghent University pursues an integrated mobility policy, making the campuses easily accessible, increasing traffic safety and reducing the environmental impact of staff and student travel.
- Sustainable mobility plan 2020-2030: What are the goals, the plans and where we are?
- How travels the staff of your campus from home to workplace (modal splits)?
- Parking make-overs (in Dutch): campus Dunant, campus Sterre, campus Coupure
What moves you?
Cycling or taking the train instead of the car? It is your choice. But we hope we can convince you to leave the car behind as often as possible. For the environment, for your health, for your convenience...

Commuting
Commuting involves traveling from home to work by bicycle, public transport, and/or car. We encourage sustainable commuting with a bicycle allowance, public transport reimbursement, bicycle rental and lease, mobile bicycle repair service, etc. We try to limit car use with a sustainable parking policy.

Service transport
For service transport (so no commuting) in the Ghent area or to other cities in Belgium, you can use sharing bikes or cars.
