He said that prior to this survey all students received the same informational material regarding transportation issues. As a result of the study, the brochure, Mastering Campus , was written specifically for graduate and professional students. He distributed this brochure to assembled members and said this brochure is given to all new graduate and professional students to better help them navigate campus. C. Cohen said that safety is a number one priority for transportation services. He reported that Cornell has a very diverse population with diverse transportation needs.
People drive, ride the bus, walk, and ride bicycles or in-line skates on campus.
He reported that transportation services would be adding a considerable number of bicycle parking spaces across campus in the near future. He said they are trying to reach the Cornell population in many ways and increase safety awareness. He also gave members a reflective light that was designed for pedestrians to attach to backpacks or other external areas. A small button on the light makes it turn on and flash and could be helpful when a pedestrian might be walking across campus in the dark. C. Cohen explained that the Employee Benefit Pool funds the Transportation Demand Management Program.
