Parking
Parking at Østfold University College shall only take place in designated places. In both Halden and Fredrikstad, there are clearly stated parking spaces for cars, electric cars, motorcycles / bicycles and the disabled.
Parking spaces for electric cars are not permitted for use by hybrid cars. Fines can be imposed on those who e.g. park outside marked fields or designated parking space. The same applies to hybrid cars that park in electric car spaces. These are only reserved for electric cars.
It is important that all HiØ's students, employees and visitors follow the parking instructions described with signs on both Remmen and Kråkerøy. This is to ensure access for rescue vehicles, prevent damage to park facilities, accidents due to congestion - and avoid confinement.
