FAQs about SSc4.2 :

Our building is mostly residential. Must we provide showers and changing rooms for the nonresidential portion?

Does LEED have any requirements on spacing or the type of bike racks used? What about security?

Are there specific requirements for the changing rooms, such as size?

Based on my FTE calculations, I am only required to provide 1 shower to meet this requirement. Since both males and females will have access to this one shower, and it will be in a single room, does this satisfy the credit requirements? Can I use an exist

Do bike racks have to be within the LEED project boundary?

My project type serves visitors who can reasonably be expected to not be using bikes, e.g. hotel, airport, assisted living facility. Can I exclude them from bike rack requirements?

Is a general storage room that is accessible to residents acceptable for covered bike storage?

Do I round up or down? What if the calculations show that I need 0.5 showers?

My understanding was that the only way to achieve this credit was to develop a Comprehensive Transportation Management Plan; however, the form also shows the following option: “Double Transit Ridership: The project team has demonstrated quadruple the transit service requirements of the credit in order to achieve double transit ridership.” Does this mean that if we provide 4 times the cyclist facilities requirements (racks and showers) we can get the innovation credit?

The comprehensive trans. management plan is the main EP option for SSc4, but for SSc4.1 only there is an Option 2: Double Transit Ridership. There are more details on that under SSc4.1.
