Office of the University Architect
The University is currently engaged in the development of a University Campus Master Plan. One vital component of this planning process is an analysis of transportation systems including bicycle commuting. Cyclists and non-cyclists alike can help us to better understand where and what kind of facilities are most needed for the support of bicycle commuters. Please assist us by filling out the following survey.
