EVELYN CHANG for the Daily Titan

Bike Nation USA recently installed its stations on Cal State Fullerton’s campus, the station additions will simplify transportation for students and faculty alike. Multiple bike stations have also been placed around downtown Fullerton. A contract between the Or- ange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) and Bike Nation was signed in 2012. A total of 165 bicycles located at 15 different stations throughout the city were installed in January 2014. The installation of the bike stations around the city comes at a time when bicycles are gaining recognition as a dependable method of transportation around urban areas, while simultaneously decreasing car usage. The bike-sharing program located in Fullerton is currently a two-year pilot program.

In addition to avoiding the stress of having to search for parking in an area so dependent on cars, using the rental bicycles will also allow students to skip the stress of sitting in traffic behind a long line of cars.

The Federal Transit Ad- ministration supported the efforts to cut down air pollu- tion by giving the program a $768,000 federal grant.
