New program allows students free reclaimed bike loans
|
UTA is offering a change in gear for Mavericks who want to give cycling a try through a partnership with the Bike Barn.
Launched in August, the two-year pilot program allows students the opportunity to borrow reclaimed bicycles at no cost by requesting a semester-long bike loan permit via their MavPark portal and joining a waitlist.
Once approved, borrowers will receive loan agreements and bike assignment details via email, then retrieve and return their bikes at the end of the semester.
This initiative supports UTA’s sustainability goals and involves collaboration among Parking & Transportation Services, UTA Libraries, Student Affairs, and the Office of Sustainability. The Bike Barn also offers drop-in DIY repair assistance from Monday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., helping students maintain their borrowed bicycles throughout the semester and build critical bike repair and ownership skills.
