    A drying room for wet gear is the norm in most work environments now. it encourages commuters to continue through the winter and horrid weather as they are reassured that the wet soggy gear will be dry for the return to home. If commuting and a healthy lifestyle is a priority to the Uni, every bit of support and luxury will make the experience more enjoyable.

8:49am on 9 Oct 18 I fully agree in this idea. When I have to commute in the rain, all my gear is soaked and when it comes to commuting home at the end of the day, it is still wet. This creates a major discomfort baring in mind that my journey is over an hour by bike. Action should be taken on creating this facility as it would definitely be put to use especially with the introduction of E-Bikes. How can you expect people to use them during the winter when there are no facilities that cater towards alleviating the struggles of wet commutes?
