SDG 11.4.2 Promote sustainable commuting

The provision of discounted parking (Figure 1) and a shuttle bus service between the two campuses.

1. Full-time faculty and staff can apply for regular parking at a discounted monthly fee to facilitate their commute.

2. The underground parking lot on the Jinde Campus is also available for rent to the community residents and other off-campus visitors. As the Campus is located in Fuxing Village, the residents of Fuxing Village are offered preferential monthly rental fees. However, because of the limitation of parking spaces, applications are accepted on a limited quota.

3. Faculty, staff, and students without parking permits; part-time teachers, teachers from partner schools/universities; senior students returning for focus groups; alumni; and those who are invited to participate in conferences, seminars, competitions, and training programs, short-term training students; as well as individuals with valid ticket for the swimming pool during a specified period, can receive a 50% discount on temporary parking fees by presenting their service card, identification card, meeting notice, or student (member) card.

4. NCUE provides shuttle bus services between the two campuses every semester. Two to three surveys are conducted during each semester (before and at the beginning of the semester) to assess transportation needs, and the shuttle bus schedule is accordingly adjusted. The daily schedule then fits students’ course time to go and return from campuses (Figure 2). The web links for announcements regarding the shuttle bus service are as follows:

5. In March 2022, the Chang Hua Bus added the 2A bus route, extending service from Changhua Train Station to the Baoshan Campus (with free rides between the Jinde Campus and the train station), improving convenience for students commuting between the train station and both campuses (Figure 3). The bus route is shown in Figure 4, and the schedule details can be found on the home page of Changhua Bus. Website: https://www.changhuabus.com.tw/service_info.asp?id=1166

6. Professor Liang-rui Chen led a project, funded by the National Science and Technology Council, titled “Field Research and Demonstration of Multiple Microgrids in a High-Penetration Photovoltaic Environment.” To provide resources for the project, a public bid was held in 2022. As the winner, Creative Tech Consultants, Inc supplied an electric bus for NCUE, which will be used in green field energy experiments (Figure 5).
