The UoD board assigned a committee headed by Dr. Ahmed Mohammed Salih, Vice-President for Administrative and Financial Affairs, to organize traffic and students’ movement within the UoD campus.

Dr. Dilshad Abdul Jabbar Haleem, member of the board, indicated that the UoD board has decided to allocate a number of buses to commute students, especially female students living in hostels.

Dr. Haleem also explained that the university has designated a number of stations that have been identified and dyed and Korek Telekom will be setting specified cabins to protect students from the sun and the rain. The buses will be operating between 8 A.M. and 3 P.M. and will be scheduled every 10 minutes.  

Dr. Dilshad continued to explain that this is a part of a more comprehensive plan to relieve heavy traffic inside the campus by formally forbidding taxis to move into the campus and in case the plan worked effectively, forbidding students’ cars to enter the campus and only allow teachers and employees to have their cars inside the campus.
