On May 12, a ribbon cutting ceremony was held at the new bike shelter near the Divinity School. Transportation Services Director John Nolan, Associate Vice President for Facilities and Environmental Services Tom Vautin, Manager of CommuterChoice Kris Locke and others gathered for the event. The shelter, on Francis Street, encourages bicycling by providing a covered area for up to 74 bikes. The interior lighting is solar powered making it even more environmentally friendly. Transportation Services and CommuterChoice worked closely with Harvard’s Divinity School and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences to complete the project.
