Electric scooters, also known as e-scooters, have grown in popularity as a mode of transportation in urban areas due to their convenience and environmental benefits. OCAD University, located in the heart of downtown Toronto, has policies in place that reflect both the city's regulations and the university's commitment to safety and accessibility.

The use of electric scooters on campus grounds should adhere to the university's guidelines as well as municipal laws. Toronto has specific rules governing the use of e-scooters, including where they can be ridden and parked. Generally, e-scooters are not allowed on sidewalks, to ensure the safety of pedestrians. Riders must follow the same rules as cyclists and are encouraged to use bike lanes where available.

On university property, the parking of electric scooters should be done in designated areas to avoid obstructing pathways, doorways, ramps, and access points. OCAD University strives to maintain a safe and accessible environment for all students, faculty, staff, and visitors.

Those who choose to use electric scooters as their method of transportation to OCAD University must also be mindful of the Ontario Highway Traffic Act and the City of Toronto Bylaws, which outline the legal requirements for operating an e-scooter, such as age restrictions, speed limits, and helmet usage.

It's recommended that individuals check the latest guidelines provided by OCAD University and the City of Toronto before riding an electric scooter to the campus to ensure compliance with current rules and regulations.
