Local Transit
Due to the shortage of available parking on campus and in downtown Chico, we encourage you to use the local transportation system, ride a bike or walk instead of driving to campus. The university encourages the use of alternative methods of transportation.

Downtown Bicycle Rentals
Chico is a very bicycle friendly town! Chico is a convenient community for bicycling, as it is relatively flat and there are ample bike parking locations as well as bike lanes and paths throughout the community. Virtually everything in town is within biking distance (within 5 miles, but mostly within 2 miles). Although bicycle riding through the core of the University campus is prohibited, there are convenient bicycle parking locations around the entire campus. If you didn’t bring your bike with you, you can always rent one!
