BEST Blast: Sustainability Update on LimeBike

BEST Blast: Sustainability Update on LimeBike

In an effort to reduce our carbon footprint and encourage alternative transportation, bike sharing through LimeBike is available on campus for students, faculty, and staff. Campus Recreation & Wellness hosted the official launch on January 23rd, 2018 with a total of 35 bicycles. Bike sharing is environmentally-friendly, economically cost-effective, a great way to keep fit, stay healthy and have fun.

LimeBikes use a completely dockless system and can be found at various locations including Penafort Pool, Andreas Hall, Browne/Dunspaugh residence halls, Garner Hall, Landon Student Union, Dominican residence hall and the School of Podiatric Medicine. LimeBike allows students to be more mobile around campus and the greater Miami area through an affordable, alternative method of transportation. Download the free LimeBike app on Apple and Android phones to create an account and pay a reduced rate of $.50 cents for every 30 minute ride when you use your barry.edu email. The LimeBike app will also show riders where the nearest bike is on campus.
