One of the daily struggles for students is transportation within and around the university campus. Walking long distances in the heat, waiting for crowded shuttles, or relying on expensive auto-rickshaws consumes valuable time and energy. For students who stay late in labs or libraries, safety and reliability become even bigger concerns.

My idea is to introduce CampusRide, a student-run electric bike and scooter sharing system designed specifically for university life. The service would allow students to unlock e-bikes or e-scooters using their student ID card or a simple mobile app. Vehicles can be parked at designated docking stations around campus — near hostels, libraries, cafeterias, and academic blocks.

The pricing would be highly affordable, with pay-per-use or monthly subscription models, making it budget-friendly for students. Since the system uses electric vehicles, it is eco-friendly, reduces carbon footprint, and promotes green mobility inside the campus. Additionally, the app can integrate safety features such as GPS tracking and SOS buttons for late-night riders.

This solution benefits:

  • Students: Saves time, provides convenience, and improves safety.

  • University: Promotes sustainability and enhances the campus image.

  • Community: Encourages adoption of clean and smart mobility.

As a student, I believe this idea matters because it addresses our everyday struggles while contributing to a greener and smarter campus environment. With the right support, CampusRide could become a model that other universities adopt too.

  • This is a really practical and student-friendly idea. CampusRide not only solves transportation issues but also promotes sustainability.
  • Love this! CampusRide makes student travel faster, safer, and greener—exactly what every university needs
  • This is a good attempt, but I feel the idea is not fully practical in its current form. The explanation misses some details about how it will actually work in real life, especially in terms of cost and adoption. Maybe you could refine the plan with more concrete steps so that it feels more realistic.
  • The idea looks really strong and I can clearly see the value it could bring to students and the campus community. But I was wondering, what are some of the risks you foresee during the actual implementation stage? For example, challenges like maintenance of vehicles, ensuring consistent usage, or even gaining initial adoption from students can sometimes become hurdles. How do you think you would try to overcome such risks and keep the project sustainable in the long run?
  • I really like the concept because it directly addresses a genuine problem that many students or users face. The idea is practical and easy to understand, but I was wondering about the possible challenges you might face when trying to get people to adopt it? For example, users are often comfortable with their existing habits or current alternatives, so convincing them to switch can be tough. Do you have a plan for how you would encourage adoption and create trust among the first set of users?
  • I like the concept, it’s simple and addresses a real issue. What challenges do you think you might face in adoption — for example, convincing people to try it instead of their usual habits? Maybe highlighting how your solution is better or more convenient could help.”
  • CampusRide is a practical, eco-friendly solution that saves time, improves safety, and makes student life easier

    I wish this came earlier
    Helpful to alot including me
  • Great thought! One challenge I see is maintenance of the bikes. Maybe you can propose a student-volunteer program to keep costs low.
  • That’s a smart and practical idea it directly solves students’ daily commute struggles while promoting eco-friendly mobility. CampusRide could truly set a benchmark for sustainable university transport.
  • Since demand is likely to peak during class hours, the app should incorporate a real-time availability feature. This would allow users to instantly see whether a slot, resource, or service is accessible before making a request. By providing live updates, the system can help prevent user frustration, reduce unnecessary waiting, and ensure smoother management of peak-hour demand.
