Is secure bicycle rack storage measured in feet or yards?
Hi Ron, thanks for your question. Secure bicycle rack storage is measured in yards. Sorry for any confusion. According to the LEED 2009 for New Construction reference guide:
CASE 1. Commercial or Institutional Projects
Provide secure bicycle racks and/or storage within 200 yards of a building entrance for 5% or more of all building users (measured at peak periods)
Provide shower and changing facilities in the building, or within 200 yards of a building entrance, for 0.5% of full-time equivalent (FTE) occupants.
CASE 2. Residential Projects
Provide covered storage facilities for securing bicycles for 15% or more of building occupants.
