Why doesn Parking Services ride bikes around campus?
They do, but not exclusively. ISU Parking Division employees are responsible for a number of functions and activities while on the job. This requires them to be on call for delivering large items, helping with stranded vehicles, transporting individuals as part of the safety escort program, etc. Their limited staff must be able to arrive at locations quickly and be ready to help in whatever way needed, thus making consistent bike utilization a challenge. Parking Services is exploring opportunities to continue to decrease their reliance on trucks and increase the presence of bikes on campus – while still ensuring they are providing timely and exceptional service to their customers.
