A capital project to improve site drainage, pathways, and parking areas will begin the week of June 22 and continue through the summer.
Affected Areas
The primary work area will be the paved plaza between Bldg. 5 (College Service Center) and Bldg. 6 (Haselwood Library), extending along the pathway between the south side of Bldg. 6 and the Campus Green. Additional pavement repairs will address trip hazards in the paver plaza outside Bldg. 10 (Bremer Student Center) and in the central campus plaza between Bldg. 4, 7, and 8.
What to Expect
During construction, temporary pedestrian detours will be in place as pavement is removed, repaired and replaced. Detour signage will be posted throughout the project.
The pathway along the south side of Bldg. 6 is expected to remain closed for the duration of the work. Construction will be completed in phases to maintain safe access to the front entrance of Bldg. 5 whenever possible. Bldg. 5 will also remain accessible through its north entrance, which avoids the construction area.
The ADA parking spaces at the front entrance of Bldg. 5 will be temporarily closed for contractor staging and to allow reconfiguration of the spaces to meet current ADA standards.
Contractors will access the work site through Employee Parking Lot 12. As a result, parking lot access and traffic flow may be temporarily affected.
Construction Noise | Jun. 24 – 25
Impacted Occupants: Bldgs. 5 & 6
Significant construction noise is expected during pavement demolition between Bldg. 5 and 6 on Wed., June 24, and Thurs., June 25. Occupants on the east side of Bldg. 5 facing the plaza will experience the greatest impact. Bldg. 6 occupants should also expect noise from equipment operating on the south side of the building.
The contractor will work to complete demolition activities as quickly as possible to minimize disruption. However, construction equipment and activities will generate intermittent noise throughout the project's duration.
