This Plan sets out how Tashkent University of Information technologies named after Muhammad al-Khwarizmi will achieve its vision that by 2028 ourstudents, staff and visitors will be able to access our Estate by the mode of transport best suited to their needs.
The Plan supports the University’s strategic objective of leadership in learning through facilitating equitable access to a variety of affordable transport options designed to enhance the student and staff experience. It supports our Equality and Diversity Strategy by committing to the delivery of actions that will improve access for all. It supports our Estates Vision and recognises that our dispersed teaching and research estate, together with the likelihood that new student residences will be more geographically spread across the city as the University grows, will present significant transportation challenges for our students and staff. The University also recognises that transport makes a significant contribution to our carbon footprintand local air quality. The Sustainablity Development policy to 2033 and beyond lays out a comprehensive whole institution approach to climate change mitigation and adaptation in order to achieve its ambitious target of net zero carbon by 2040. Reducing carbon emissions from commuting and business travel will make an important contribution to this target. The majority of our students and staff choose to walk, cycle or use public transport and actions within this plan will support growth in travel by these methods.
Student feedback is clear that the University must do more to improve the accessibility of the estate by all modes of transport, but with a particular emphasis on public transport. It is acknowledged that for some individuals, such as disabled people, accessing our Estate by car or wheelchair is the only available option.
