But this leads to accidents, disrupts traffic, affects the rural character of the campus, and causes additional wear and costs for maintaining our roads. The barriers have been installed to prevent people from using the campus as a short cut. Employees and students can obtain a barrier pass if they meet the following conditions.

- Emergency response (BHV)Description Information on emergency response provision (ERO) at UT. Explanation Emergencies in which the safety of people is threatened, or in which damage to (UT) property can be or has been done must be reported as soon as possible via the emergency number (053-489) 2222. The Security department employee will in turn call together the nearest Emergency Response Provision team (ERP team) and send them to the site in question as soon as possible. Report method Every emergency must be reported via the emergency number (053-489) 2222 regardless of whether or not you have already called 112. The on-call staff member will guide the emergency services to the building or location in question on the University grounds in case of emergencies. This ensures that the emergency services will not have to look for the emergency location. This is the only way in which the staff member can prepare for this guidance so they will not face any surprises (such as locked gates, road works or demarcation that could hinder access).
