The Background: Better Mobility, More Services for Students and Families
College communities across the country, whether urban, suburban or rural, are developing strategies to reduce driving and parking demand around campus. Like many schools, the University of Kentucky in Lexington seeks to balance the modern mobility needs and demands of the entire college community with reducing the need for parking.
The discussion will center on how to simultaneously improve mobility services for students and families while creating a more sustainable community, with less need for cars. Offering trips to cities within a day’s drive can help schools make their campuses more accessible while helping families reduce the financial and logistical stress of having a child in college.
