| Fire Prevention Officers are on-call on a 24-hour basis. Besides responding to fire emergencies, we are engaged in fire prevention activities, hot work and scheduled shut-downs, training, special events planning, construction fire safety, fire drills, fire equipment inspections and repairs. | We coordinate parking and transportation activities on the downtown campus. Our services include garage and parking lot access, issuing permits, providing proximity parking for persons with disabilities, event planning, disseminating information about how campus construction impacts parking and STM/BIXI initiatives. |
Ensuring the safety of the McGill community is our ultimate and continuous goal. The team of professionals that make up the Campus Public Safety department work tirelessly to address the University’s ever-changing safety needs while encouraging all our community members to join the collective effort to promote a culture of safety across both our campuses.
As we look forward to the future, we invite you to partner with us in creating a safe McGill. If you have suggestions on what we can do to better assist you, or ideas on how we can collaborate, please do not hesitate to contact us.
