What would significantly increase biking and walking activity on campus?
What would it take to double it? We’re hopeful that once we establish a commuter program with incentives that that is going to make a difference. I’m always a believer in rewarding people for the things you want them to do. And I think with the grant we got from TLC to start the Bike Center and RFID program we’re going to be able to do that. I don’t think that’s enough to double it. I think in order to double mode share there has to be some kind of extraneous event or events, like a fuel dislocation or price shock. It has to be some economic disruption in order to get that kind of immediate leap. In the long run, one of the things that works for us is the increase in student housing that’s being built near campus.. That makes a big difference. Part of our increases over the years, especially lately, is driven by how many housing units are within a couple of miles of campus. That’s a big factor: why would anybody drive to campus when they live a mile and a half away. And people don’t;.
