·       Free local transit (CTA routes 171 & 172 free to UC faculty, staff and students)

These are in addition to our existing programs:

Background

 

I came to U of C in July 2005 from Emory University in Atlanta where I was the Director of Alternative Transportation for 5 years.

 

I currently serve as the national Treasurer for the Association for Commuter Transportation (ACT).

 

I am also the President for the Midwest Chapter of ACT.

 

It is my goal to establish the leading commute options and campus transportation system in the country at U of C.

 

With the establishment of the Transportation and Parking Office, U of C now has all elements of access and mobility for the campus housed in one place.

 


I also work with our partners at CNT, CDOT, CMAP, Clean Air Counts, Partners for Clean Air, PACE, Chicagoland Bicycle Federation and others.

I am happy to take suggestions and comments about transportation at U of C.  Feel free to email me by clicking my name above.
