New fire lane signs have been posted around the fire lanes that run through campus to alert drivers no parking areas. Signs that were posted in the past alerted drivers to pedestrian walking areas and reduced speed limits.
Please obey the reduced speed signs in these areas while driving golf carts, and gators. Pedestrians always have the right of way—at least 3 feet!
All campus fire lanes must be clear of parked vehicles. There is an exception for facilities operations service vehicles for short periods of time when performing building and equipment related tasks.
By keeping entrances and fire lanes clear and accessible, we will provide the required access for emergency responders.

All personal vehicles must park in the designated parking lots or on the street parking spots on campus.
The Appleton Fire Department also drives around our campus to make sure that these areas are not being used for parking areas. We have received pictures of this inspection and have also warned contractors about parking in these areas and blocking access to building standpipe connections. (For example, the fire lane located by the south lower entrance doors to the Warch Campus Center). Also, keep areas clear and accessible around fire hydrants, making it is easy access the connections.
There will be daily inspections of fire lanes around Lawrence University and documenting vehicles that are parking in fire lanes. If you have questions, please contact Mark Musser (mark.musser@lawrence.edu).
