Bikes at UDC

Bicycle loan program at the UDC

The aim of this program is to promote the use of the bicycle as a vehicle for sustainable mobility, facilitating access to a bicycle for those interested in using it to travel to university centers.

The use of bicycles as daily transportation and travel reduces traffic congestion, improves environmental quality in cities, helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and improves the health of people who use them.
