UBC’s Okanagan campus has entered into a partnership with Zipcar, Castanet reported.
Students, faculty and anyone over age 21 have access to a Volkswagen Jetta, Toyota RAV4, Hyundai Santa Fe and Hyundai Elantra with a bike rack.
“UBC is constantly looking for opportunities to enhance our transportation options, from public transit to car-pooling and active transportation,” said Rob Einarson, UBC Okanagan’s associate vice-president of finance and operations. “(Zipcar) aligns with UBC’s sustainability goals and provides at-the-ready mobility for those commuting to campus from other parts of the region, and the thousands of students who live on campus and in our surrounding neighbourhoods.”
