This report was initiated and funded by the UBC TREK Program Centre to assess the feasibility of an on‐campus public bicycle system (PBS). The report considers whether such a system could improve on‐campus mobility, reduce travel times and advance transportation and sustainability goals of the University and the region. The report evaluates relevant components of implementing a public bicycle system: the success factors, usage rates, and the expected costs and benefits. The report concludes with recommendations on how to best implement a PBS at UBC.
