  • Abstract:
    Sustainable transportation frequently describes the use of non-motorized transportation

    sources, primarily walking and bicycling (Toor and Havlick, 2004). Walking is a time

    honored method of getting around that most people can easily access. But bicycling is a

    mode of transportation that requires some basic equipment. At the same time, bicycling

    can provide tremendous mobility while also being environmentally friendly, less costly in

    terms of parking and roadway infrastructure, and an ideal way of introducing exercise

    into people’s daily lives. Bicycling for commuting purposes is used by relatively few

    individuals in American society. Bicycling is primarily used for recreation, and as a form

    of mobility is concentrated among the young who are not yet able to drive. There have

    been places where bicycling commands a fairly high proportion of the modal share, and

    many of these places are focused around college and university campuses. In an effort to

    increase the use of bicycles in and around the campus of Kent State University, we

    decided that it would be advantageous to analyze the feasibility of introducing a bicyclesharing

    program.
