Getting there.
With the “Getting There” mobility pilots we want to give you more options to travel to and from campus and we are introducing more options for our commute. We challenge ourselves to leave the car at home more often and to travel smartly from home to work and back. By smart travel we mean cycling safe, using an e‑bike, driving together and/or using public transport. By traveling smart, you are not only healthy, you also have the opportunity to interact with other people working on campus. It’s good for reducing CO2 emissions and it’s also good for your wallet.
The Mobility Action Program was made possible in part by the Energy & Health Campus partners.
