Stanford University.

On any given day, 65% of student residents at Stanford University bike on campus. This high rate of, along with a 22% overall bike commute rate for the broader campus community, has helped secure Stanford University a record fourth Platinum Bicycle Friendly University award. How did the university reduce its drive-alone commute rate from 67% in 2003 to 38% in 2024? What steps can other universities and cities take to encourage bike commuters? Which 5 Es are essential to the success of the bike program at Stanford? What improvements will Stanford's Transportation team make in 2026? All this and more in my interview with Stanford Transportation's executive director Lesley Lowe and Erin Fieberling, the lead for Stanford's sustainable mobility events and outreach.
