PATH 3. TENANT SHOWER AND CHANGING FACILITIES

Project teams should gather occupant information and determine the number of shower and changing facilities required, using Equation 8. Teams must provide vicinity or area map indicating off-site shower and changing facilities.

For large-occupancy projects with additional 1,000 - 4,999 regular building occupants, use Equation 9 to determine the number of shower and changing facilities required.

PATH 4. BICYCLE MAINTENANCE

Offering on-site bicycle maintenance services is a strategy to promote active commuting. By providing access to basic bicycle repair tools and air-pump stations, projects can make cycling a more convenient and reliable option for commuters. This proactive support ensures that bicycles remain in good working condition and encourages more individuals to adopt active commuting as part of their daily routine.

Project teams should provide a description of the available bicycle services and facilities, along with a map or site plan, indicating the location of the bicycle repair station within the designated long-term bicycle storage area to ensure that occupants are aware of where to access these resources, making it easier for them to maintain their bicycles and promoting a cyclingsupportive environment.
