The Parking and Transportation Department is committed to promoting campus accessibility through mobility solutions for all students, staff, faculty, and visitors. Regardless of primary mode, everyone is a pedestrian in their journey at one point or another. Miles of sidewalks, pedestrian paths, and pedestrian bridges provide safe and scenic routes to travel around campus. Pedestrian bridges provide safe and convenient access between the east and west sides of campus.
In addition to providing access across the Iowa River, the Iowa Avenue and Burlington Street pedestrian bridges also provide access over Riverside Drive to enhance pedestrian safety. The pedestrian bridges offer scenic views of main campus and the arts campus alike.
Connected to pedestrian pathways on both sides of the river, they are a great way to explore the beauty of the University of Iowa campus. Want to know how long it would take you to walk somewhere on campus?
A map is being developed to help visually display pedestrian routes and will be available later Fall To Macbride Hall via T. There are several maps the university provides to help navigate campus.
Some university maps may prompt you to enter your Hawk ID and password to view. There are many trails that connect communities across Iowa City and throughout the county. The resources listed can be used for planning commuting to and from campus or recreation.
