Zipcars are coming to Chico State University, the first campus in the California State University system to offer the rental car system designed to ease traffic and parking congestion and provide students with an optional method of transportation.
The campus was scheduled to receive the first cars this week from the Cambridge, Mass.-based Zipcar, which provides vehicle rentals by the hour or day. Students need to sign up for the program and they’ll then receive a contactless card that will provide access to the vehicles that will be strategically placed about campus. There is a $25 application fee and $50 annual fee.
