Eco Mobility Project

This project is to help make biking to school more feasible to students and teachers/staff members at Woodroffe HS. Through a student survey it was determined that many students do not bike to school as there is not enough places to lock up their bikes. Our 2 bikes racks are full at least 30 minutes prior to school starting. Our short term goal is to obtain 4 new bike racks and our long term goal is to provide access to bikes that do not have them.
