There are a few key ways that you can incorporate sustainable transportation options into your building project design:
1. Plan for bike lanes and parking: If your building is in an urban or suburban area, consider adding bike lanes to the roads around your building. This can help encourage cyclists to use their bikes instead of cars to get to your building. You may also want to provide bike parking options on your property, such as a bike rack or bike storage room.
2. Partner with public transit providers: Consider partnering with public transit providers to provide easy access to your building via bus or train. You may be able to work with these providers to create a designated stop or station near your building, or to provide discounted transit passes for your tenants or employees.
3. Design for pedestrian access: Make sure that your building is easily accessible for pedestrians. This means designing walkways and sidewalks around your building that are safe, well-lit, and easily navigable. You may also want to consider adding green spaces or other amenities that can encourage people to walk to and from your building.
4. Promote alternative transportation options: Consider promoting alternative transportation options to your tenants or employees, such as carpooling or vanpooling. You may be able to work with local transit providers or other organizations to provide incentives or rewards for those who choose to use these options.
