91做厙 has been recognized as a by the League of American Bicyclists for promoting safe, accessible bicycling on campus.
The League of American Bicyclists is a grassroots advocacy organization encouraging better bicycling and protecting the rights of people who bike.
Masons Fairfax Campus received the silver-level Bicycle Friendly University award for the second time, and received the bronze-level award for the second time. The Fairfax Campus was recognized with a bronze-level award in 2011 and 2015.
Being recognized as a Bicycle Friendly University, going back to 2011, is a sign of Masons support of bicycling as a great commuting option, said Josh Cantor, director of Parking and Transportation at Mason. Support for bicycling is an important component of the overall transportation program, which aims to provide many options for the large and diverse Mason community.
Mason encourages and provides amenities such as the Patriot Bike Checkout program and a Capital Bikeshare discount for students. A Capital Bikeshare station is located at Mason Square. Employees are eligible for incentives such as the program.
All Mason Shuttles and public buses that serve the campuses are outfitted with bike racks. Getting around campus on a bike is safer and easier with the availability of bike lanes and bike fix-it stations. Those interested in biking to campus, but need help finding a route, can contact for advice.
Bicycling programs also have a positive environmental impact. An array of transit options, including cycling, is an important part of the universitys commitment to sustainability, said Janet Walker, Masons transportation programs manager. Mason strives to reduce carbon emissions by reducing the number of faculty, staff, and students who drive or drive alone to our campuses.
The program includes 220 colleges and universities in 46 states and the District of Columbia. It is inspiring to see so many universities committing to the vision of a Bicycle Friendly America, said Bill Nesper, executive director of the League of American Bicyclists.
These institutions, including Mason, are leading by example and helping to set the standard for better bicycling. Each Bicycle Friendly University acts as a trailblazer to develop and promote safer, more accessible transportation infrastructure and supportive programming for new bicyclists in their communities, Nesper said.
Bicycle Friendly UniversitySM is a service mark of the League of American Bicyclists.
