With the start of school right around the corner, there’s no better time to raise awareness about OCTA’s bikesharing program in Fullerton, where more than 32,000 students attend the local branch of the state university.
During August and September, OCTA is offering students 20 percent off BikeShare annual memberships, dropping the cost from $45 to $36. Annual members can use the BikeShare system on an unlimited basis for short point-to-point trips around town. Four BikeShare stations are located on the campus of California State University, Fullerton.
Bikesharing programs are popular on college campuses because they help relieve traffic congestion, reduce greenhouse gas emission, provide exercise, and eliminate the hassle of bringing a bike to campus.
