Exploration of University Bike-based Courier Services
Our dept. is exploring the possibility of starting up a bike-based courier service on our campus to augment our campus mail services as well as other delivery services that currently operate on our campus, oftentimes using large motor vehicles for small packages that could be easily delivered via bike. This survey is to gather data on other universities that currently have bike-based courier services. I'll be sharing the results with the Campus Bike Programmer Network after the survey closes (approx. mid January, 2015). Questions about this survey? Contact: Tim Potter, Mich. St. Univ. Bikes Service Center, E. Lansing, MI
