ADDITIONAL BICYCLE RACKS INSTALLED AT COUGAR VILLAGE
 Students
now have four additional bicycle racks outside of Cougar Village
for securing their bicycles. Parking and Transportation Services
installed the racks last week in order to address an increase in
the number of bicycles on campus. The four new racks will
accommodate approximately 50 additional bicycles.
�The additional bike racks were installed to accommodate the
growing number of students, especially the residents at Cougar
Village, who use bikes to get around campus,� said Eric Holamon,
Customer Service Manager for Parking and Transportation
Services. �As the number of students choosing to live on campus
has grown, we�ve seen a shift in students bringing bikes,
instead of cars, to campus. I think having a comprehensive set
of transportation options, including our partnership with METRO
and our Hertz on Demand program, allows students the option to
use a bike instead of always being dependent on a car, and we
will continue to help promote this method of green commuting.�
The additional racks were placed adjacent to the bridge
connecting Cougar Village and Moody Towers. Students are advised
to refrain from attaching bicycles to the bridge and should
utilize the new racks.
