FACILITY DESIGN

Ensuring our communities are accessible is paramount to the region's success. Developers and property managers play an integral part in this because they design their facilities to encourage - or discourage - a variety of transportation options. Buildings that are easy to access by vanpool, foot or bus, and not just single-occupancy vehicles, will be necessary as more employers move into the region.

Commuter Services can conduct an evaluation of your worksite to assess physical opportunities and barriers to successful commute option programs, such as location of amenities in relation to the worksite, sidewalks, parking opportunities, placement of bus shelters and more.

Evaluations can also include an assessment of:

• Pedestrian walkways
• Parking areas
• Building orientation
• Passenger loading areas
• Transit access and visibility
• Bicycle amenities
• Access to services and amenities
• Information areas

All site evaluations include recommendations and are a free service provided by Commuter Services. Interested companies and organizations should contact us at 1.866.585.RIDE or email us for further information.
