Public Safety
UConn police patrol the parking lots on a regular basis. There are also "blue box" emergency phones located throughout the lots and linked directly to the West Hartford Police Department.
The Hartford Sub Station of the University of Connecticut Police Department is located on the Law School Campus. The Sub Station also has officers assigned to the Undergraduate Campus and Graduate School of Social Work situated several miles away in West Hartford. Due to the urban setting, officers at the Hartford Sub Station work very closely with the local police departments and staff a community policing program focused particularly on undergraduate students at the West Hartford Campus. In addition to their normal law enforcement function, officers also assist the public with vehicle unlocks and late night student escorts.
UConn police patrol all lots on a regular basis and will issue tickets for parking violations. The hours of ticketing are 8 a.m. – 9 p.m. students and visitors must park in the student/visitor parking lot opposite the campus on Trout Brook Dr. at all times.
