QUT supports staff and students using cycling as an alternative to motorised transport. It reduces related greenhouse gas emissions, provides an excellent form of physical activity with significant health benefits by reducing the impact of chronic diseases, reduces transport costs, and reduces congestion at peak times on the roads.

Cycling to work or university provides an outlet from the demands of study and work giving your mind a chance to switch off and find time for yourself or an opportunity for social interactions within a community. It certainly can beat the frustrations and economic drain of sitting in traffic. For some employees the ride to work is 30 minutes quicker than driving or catching public transport.
The University has secure bicycle parking, showers, and end of trip facilities for our staff and students. For bike storage and shower locations open and locate on the links on the left.
