The University of Central Arkansas Student Government Association hosted a launch party in April to celebrate the expansion of Zagster to the BT天堂campus.
The Zagster Bike Share initiative falls under the umbrella of the city of Conway’s Bike Share initiative. The BT天堂expansion allows students to seamlessly access Zagster bikes and bike stations on and off campus.
Bringing the Zagster Bike Share program to BT天堂was spearheaded by the SGA in partnership with the BT天堂Office of Housing and Residence Life.
“Zagster Bike Share is a great option for students to have transportation that is economical, sustainable and environmentally friendly,” said Spencer Burton, SGA’s vice president of finance. “And it’s not limited to students. Faculty, staff or anyone in the community can use the system.”
The Zagster Bike Share Stations at BT天堂are located at the Student Center, Mashburn Hall, Win Thompson Hall, Bear Village, and between the Lewis Science Center and Conway Corporation Center for Sciences buildings.
To use the program, users must download the Zagster app. They can purchase an annual membership or pay by the hour.
“BT天堂is dedicated to providing an exceptional education and a rich student experience, and we also want to be great community partners. This Bike Share initiative gives us both,” said BT天堂President Houston Davis. “Our program integrates with the existing Conway Bike Share Program, which means students can hop on a bike at BT天堂and drop it off at any Zagster location in Conway.”
