Alternative Transportation

Transportation is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S., accounting for nearly 27% of all the planet-warming gases produced in our country. 这些排放的大部分(近60%)来自全国2.5亿辆乘用车.

UNE致力于为其社区提供可替代的交通方式, with the hope of keeping the number of passenger vehicles on the road to a minimum. 探索可以减少校园内外交通相关碳足迹的方法. Take a bus, share a Lyft ride, carpool, bike, or take advantage of our on-campus electric vehicle charging stations. At UNE, there is always a greener way to go.

Buses

Silver Line and Local Connections

Offering a regular schedule seven days a week, BSOOB Transit’s Silver Line transports UNE faculty, professional staff, and students to and from the Biddeford Campus and the Saco Transportation Center. 从那里，你可以换乘几辆本地公交车，为你的通勤提供更大的灵活性. You just need to present a UNE ID card. Visit the BSOOB Transit website for routes, schedules, and the new bus locator tool.

Regional Connections

UNE students, faculty, and professional staff can ride the Greater Portland Metro and South Portland buses for free with University ID cards. Greater Portland Metro services Westbrook, Falmouth, the Portland peninsula, and as far north as Freeport and Brunswick. 南波特兰巴士服务于南缅因社区学院和威拉德海滩地区, the Maine Mall area, and in between, and they connect with GP Metro on the Portland peninsula.

BSOOB Transit的Zoom收费高速公路提供工作日服务，从比德福德和中美合作大学收费高速公路出口以及中美合作大学交通中心到波特兰市中心.

Carpooling at UNE

GO MAINE Commuter Connections是一个由缅因州收费公路管理局和缅因州交通部赞助的在线拼车资源. These organizations have created a UNE-specific landing page for our faculty, professional staff, and students. Registering takes only minutes, and a tip sheet (PDF) 帮助用户广泛地搜索，找到通勤伙伴，但又足够狭隘，让拼车成为每个人的愉快体验. GO MAINE还以当地供应商折扣和在线优惠券的形式提供奖励，当用户跟踪他们的乘车记录时.

Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Maine’s electricity grid is powered by a minimum of 30% renewable energy sources, so driving an electric vehicle emits less carbon than fossil fuel-powered vehicles. 为了鼓励采用这种交通方式，并支持低碳交通系统, 正规澳门赌场网络在波特兰和比德福德校区为我们的正规澳门赌场网络社区提供充电站.

Purchasing EV Add-on Decal

UNE faculty, professional staff, 学生必须在获得批准的停车许可证的同时购买电动汽车附加贴纸. The decal is $40 and can be purchased at ThePermitStore. 无论电动汽车状态如何，您必须在您的停车许可证所标识的停车场停车.

EV Owner Collaborative

Purchasing an EV add-on decal will register you in our EV Owner Collaborative program, 您将在哪里获得其他新能源充电站用户的联系信息. You will receive periodic updates about the program and expansion efforts, and have the ability to coordinate with other users.

Visitors

Visitors should email the Office of Safety and Security to obtain a day pass for charging on campus. 收费以先到先得为原则，不保证先到先得，请相应计划.

Big Blue Goes Green Incentives

Bringing a car to campus is expensive. 停车许可证按季度按比例发放，停车位不保证. There are lots of ways to get around without bringing a car to campus. Additionally, 选择不开车来学校的一年级和转学住校学生(仅限秋季入学的学生)将有资格获得300美元的经济奖励*，因为你把车留在家里. This year's incentives include:

  • $300 Flex dollars useable at select dining venues on and off campus
  • $300 Follett gift card useable at UNE Bookstore
  • $300 Lyft credit

*If you purchase a permit later, you will be billed for the cost of your incentive. Limited to your first year at UNE.

Lyft Ride Share

除了提供免费的Lyft积分，鼓励一年级学生把车留在家里, UNE encourages students to use Lyft for trips that don’t coincide with the bus schedule.

The Biddeford Campus has two designated Lyft pickup and drop-off locations, at the Campus Center and Alfond Forum bus shelters. 这款应用是免费的，可以用来叫车、联系司机、支付车费.

If you have a car, are over 25 years of age, need a flexible work schedule, and would like a little extra cash in your pocket, consider becoming a Lyft driver. Having Lyft drivers on campus increases the efficiency, cost, and environmental effectiveness of the service. It’s great when we can help each other get around and service our own community.
