Has the institution developed a bicycle plan?:
A brief description of the plan:
Carnegie Mellon University is served by regional connections and local arterials, a dense network of public and institutional transit, a walkable campus and an emerging network of bicycle lanes and trails. To build upon these systems, to improve pedestrian safety and to better use existing parking resources, the university, with its partner the Oakland Transportation Management
Association (OTMA), utlized a PennDOT Pennsylvania
Communities Transportation Initiative (PCTI) grant to analyze and assess the campus transportation
system for the IMP’s Transportation Management Plan.
The 2012 Master Plan includes Transportation Mangement Plan, Section 3.7 Page #44.
