Severe Weather Campus Services Status
During periods of severe weather, this web site will provide updates on the
status of parking facilities,
busing and transportation services, and dining facilities
at Duke.
Parking
During severe weather, all Duke parking garages will be made available to staff assigned to the Essential Service category, free of charge, for the duration of the severe weather / emergency condition event. Spaces will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.
Parking lots will be cleared as quickly as possible to provide access to Duke's facilities during periods of severe weather.
You can view
a
list
of the priority status for the clearing of parking lots during severe weather. Priority for clearing is given to lots near critical operational areas and lots where large numbers of people need access (e.g. patient care facilities).
Busing/Transportation
During severe weather, every effort will be made to continue transit services. Schedules may be adjusted based on road conditions and available parking.
See
a
list of transit schedules and a
map of busing routes
for more information.
Transit service during severe weather will be provided in the following priority order:
- H-2 (PG 3 to Hospital North)
- PR-1 (Entry 11 to Bassett Drive via Circuit Drive)
- PR-2 (Bassett Drive to Bryan Center via Science Drive)
- C-1 (East to West Campus)
- H-3 (H Lots on Yearby only to Hospital North)
- C-2 (East Campus to West Campus via Central Campus)
- H-1 (PG 3 to Hospital North & South)
Transit service to outlying parking lots will be provided once the routes have been cleared. As conditions improve, all campus and hospital routes will resume their regular schedules as quickly as possible.
Dining
During severe weather, Duke University Dining Services will open as many
units as possible. The initial focus will be to open the two larger venues, The
Great Hall on West Campus and the East Campus Marketplace.
Duke Stores will open the three convenience stores, Office Products and Computer Repair. Should the severe weather occur at the beginning of each semester, every effort will be made to open the University Store and related stores (Computer Store, Medical Center Store, Textbook Store, and the Gothic Bookshop) and to provide other related services to the university community.
