Campus Transportation Survey Identifies Challenges and Opportunities
This fall, sustainNU released its inaugural campus-wide Transportation Survey in partnership with the University’s Office of Institutional Research and Transportation and Parking Services. The goal of the survey was to gather information that will inform efforts to make traveling to and from campus more convenient and environmentally sustainable.
The survey gathered information about the commuting habits of our faculty, staff, and students, and the Northwestern community’s awareness of current transportation amenities provided by the University.
The survey received a higher than average response rate of 29 percent. We will work to compile and report all the data received from the survey as soon as possible. Please keep an eye out early next year for a full report.
In the meantime, an initial review of responses showed that some respondents were not aware of all of the existing transportation resources offered by the University. The links below provide information to make getting to and around campus easier.
- General Northwestern Transportation and Parking Information
- Northwestern Biking Resources
- Employee Pre-Tax Transit Pass Benefit Information
- Divvy Bike Sharing Wildcard Discount
- Zipcar Wildcard Discount
- Enterprise CarShare Wildcard Discount
- Northwestern Shuttle Resources
On behalf of everyone at sustainNU, we would like to thank you for your thoughtful and valuable responses. Your feedback will help us improve the existing transportation program at the university, as well as help us plan for the future.
