New CPD protocol for traffic accident responses

December 2022

Recently, Chattanooga Police Department implemented a new protocol regarding their response to traffic accidents.

View New CPD Protocols

As all of UTC vehicles are considered government-owned vehicles, please continue to call 911 (off campus), 911 from a campus phone, or 425-4357 (HELP) to report an accident on campus.  Inform Dispatch that the vehicle involved is a UTC vehicle.

Also note that this includes those that are driving rental, or personally owned, vehicle on official university business.  In this case, inform Dispatch that you are on official university business.

If the accident involves a non-state owned vehicle, property or a person, an additional required step is to report the accident to the State of Tennessee Call Center 855-253-0629 within 24 hours.


We're updating our fuel management system!

May 2021

The new fuel dispenser and software will provide 24/7 self-service fueling for university gas-powered vehicles and equipment. This new system will require updated WEX fuel cards which will be tied to either a specific vehicle or to a department which can then be used to fill gas cans, golf carts, etc. Vehicles that travel out of the Chattanooga area will use the same WEX fuel card to purchase fuel off campus. A PIN (IRIS 6 digit personnel number) will be required for all on and off campus fuel purchases. More information will be posted on this page and emailed to the UTC-Info list. If you have any questions, please email [email protected].
