bike repair stations
TRANSCRIPT
Green Fund Final Report
Project Overview Aligned with Penn’s Sustainable Transportation Initiatives, the Division of Business Services has provided bicyclists with two repair stations near two high-‐capacity bike parking locations on campus. These bike repair stations provide a valued amenity and recognition of the importance of cycling to the Penn community. The stations include tools to change a tire, instruments to adjust the seat and brakes, and a self-‐service air pump and are free for anyone to use. One repair station is located at the garage on 34th and Chestnut Street where there are covered bike racks and the other is located near the bike corral by the Chemistry building on 34th and Spruce Street. More information about the bike repair stations can be found on Penn’s Biking Website—Read More Lessons Learned The easy installation and positive feedback from bikers demonstrates both the scalability of this project to additional locations on campus and the high demand for a bike resource like the repair station. The repair stations will help encourage greater use of cycling at Penn, reduce vehicular traffic, save energy and contribute to Penn meeting its goal of 50% of commuters using non-‐drive alone modes.
