Letter to the editor: Bicycle racks needed at KU

To the editor:

KU’s new conference center and stadium are wonderful new facilities. However, one curious aspect of the entire Phase 1 project is that the new premises seem to have zero space set aside for bicycle parking. Considering Lawrence’s ostensible concerns about climate (not to mention neighborhood traffic and parking!), this seems a significant oversight. Some may say that no one will bike to the stadium; but I would say that’s because no bike racks have been provided. Luckily, this would be relatively cheap to remedy in Phase 2. I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed.

Ian Crossfield,
