Alternative Transportation Support

As part of its commitment to sustainable solutions, Transportation & Parking Services (TPS) supports a variety of alternative transportation options that reduce traffic on campus and emissions from single-occupancy cars.

UGA Ride Smart is a collaboration between TPS and Lyft that not only provides students with a method of safe travel at night, but also encourages ride-sharing and carpooling. Students can receive discounts on Lyft rides that meet the program qualifications, and only the student ordering the Lyft needs to be eligible. Multiple individuals can ride in the same Ride Smart car, reducing the number of single-occupancy trips.

The Bulldog Bike Share program was created to provide campus commuters with a convenient, low-cost cycling option. Individuals can pick up a bicycle at any bike share station, ride it to their destination, and check it back in at any station nearby, all through the use of a mobile app.

In addition to cycling, walking UGA’s campus is one of the best ways to get around. The Watch for Dawgs program is designed to equip pedestrians, cyclists, and micromobility users with the tools needed to safely navigate campus while also teaching motorists how to safely interact with these individuals. Please visit the Watch for Dawgs site for more information.

UGA reCYCLE

UGA reCYCLE is a need-based bicycle recycling and redistribution program for the UGA campus community. The program refurbishes bikes that were abandoned on campus bike racks and puts them in the hands of UGA students and employees who need them for transportation to and from school or work. The reCYCLE program is driven by a coalition of partners including UGA Transportation & Parking, UGA Office of Sustainability, UGA Police Department, and the local nonprofit BikeAthens. Learn more.
