The UCSC Bike Shuttle program is expanding. New service from the University Inn will begin today.
UCSC affiliates can use the new service by riding their bikes to the pick-up location at 611 Ocean Street. Bike Shuttle service is reserved for passengers that load a bike onto the trailer; those without bikes may not ride. Commuters should be aware that parking at the University Inn is reserved for hotel guests, residents and conference attendees.
One van and trailer with capacity for 14 bikes and riders per trip will depart from the southwest corner (back corner on the Dakota Street side) of the University Inn parking lot at :25 after the hour from 7:25 a.m. to 10:25 a.m., Monday through Friday.
Drop-offs on campus are at Physical Plant (Lower Campus) and Cowell Circle (Upper Campus).
Expansion of the bike shuttle program to the University Inn location was identified and proposed by UCSC students Michael Drucker, Joshua Pepper and Joey Stanwyck as a project for their Environmental Studies Capstone Graduating Seminar.
