UAF Campus Safety Project

The UAF Green Bikes program has been working to create a safer environment for those riding bikes on campus. More people are realizing that putting the car keys down can keep monthly costs down, not only with fuel, but with health care costs too. Because of this, UAF has been experiencing an increase in bicycle traffic from people commuting into school or work. As safety is our upmost concern, we have been working on solutions to dangerous areas around campus.

In the Spring of 2012, we created a proposal that was presented to the UAF Master Planning Committee. This proposal included public input via an online map survey, developed with assistance from Kittelson and Associates, which allowed visitors to place notes on specific areas on campus that they thought needed some improvement. Comments were also collected via a physical survey board and a survey on the Green Bikes website.

Below you can find the official proposal and comments collected for the project.
