Transportation and Parking Services

The university has six weather protected bicycle racks distributed across campus to keep your ride out of the elements.  They are located at the new Science and Engineering Center parking garage, Sykes Student Union, in the Student Rec Center parking garage, at Tyson Hall, in the Matlack Street Parking Lot Garage, and in the New Street Parking Garage. If you have a recommendation for more locations, email us!

In addition to the covered racks on campus, the large number of traditional bicycle racks on campus make it possible for riders to ride nearly to the door of their destination and find a safe place to lock up.

WCU has three bicycle fix-it stations, fully equipped for basic bike repairs and to add air to tires. They’re located at the new Science and Engineering Center parking garage, the South Campus Clubhouse (within the South Campus Apts. complex) and on the Residential Quad outside University Hall on North Campus.

The Bicycle Lending Library is located in the Francis Harvey Green Library.

Students and employees are able to check out a bicycle, helmet, and lock at no charge for two weeks or a full semester. For more information about the program, including weekly bike maintenance workshops, and to request a bicycle, navigate to the Bicycle Lending Library homepage.

Plan your route using Ruti, which can help you map your route and plan for any high stress areas.

You can also find routes on Share-a-Ride! If you log your trips here, you'll get coupons as a reward.

On days with inclement weather, it’s easy to hop on WCU’s free Uptown Loop Shuttle Bus from many locations in the Borough for a dry and safe commute to campus! Learn more and check shuttle schedules here.
