Commuter Tips
Vanpool to NC State
Do you have a long drive to campus? Save the wear and tear on your vehicle with a vanpool! Vanpools are similar to carpools, except the vans are leased by Enterprise and transport 4-15 passengers at a time. Email WolfTrails if you're interested in giving this a try.
Lockers for bicycle commuters
Hey Centennial bicycle commuters, do you need somewhere to store your gear during the day? There are lockers on the ground floor of EBII (adjacent to Partners Way, near the bike fix-it station). Rental cost is $20/semester or $35/year. Email us if you're interested.
