On the south side of campus, you can now bicycle or scooter up, down, and across the area using bikeways protected from cars by concrete curbs and parked vehicles.On Southside sections of Bancroft Way or Durant Avenue, hop on a bus, and you’ll glide through transit-only lanes with traffic signals that prioritize buses.On foot or for people using a wheelchair, raised intersections in the area not only slow traffic and increase visibility of those travelers, but they also more comfortably transition those in wheelchairs from sidewalks across streets.
