- Hi,
-
- Does anyone work for or know of a company that encourages its workers to
- get between the buildings of a spread out (1/2 mile) campus ?
-
- A company I have in mind has a large central campus, and a large sub-campus
- consisting of 2 buildings, 1/2 mile away, seperated by 2 different streets
- that are both speed limited to 35 miles per hour.
-
- My idea is that this company buy 3 or 4 bikes and leave them parked at
- racks that are at a known spot in front of each campus.
-
- I feel soooo silly getting in my car to go between campuses. And the distance
- is just a little too far to do your work and travel between the two 4 times a
- day.
-
- Detailed solutions welcome :) !
