11.4.2. Promote sustainable commuting

The Faculty of Psychology strives to promote sustainable commuting by making a notice regarding the limitation of car parking areas at the faculty in hopes that students, staff, and guests will prefer to use public transportation or walk when they are going to and from the faculty. We also have pedestrian paths that prioritize comfort and consider human aspects, such as circulation, nature and climate, safety, cleanliness, and beauty.
