In 2023, a mobility survey was conducted at the University of Kassel, and one of the results was that employees would like covered, secure parking facilities for their bicycles.

Three bicycle boxes have already been completed at Hopla, and further bicycle boxes are already being planned for all other locations. More on mobility in the Green:Campus field of action
