Westbound Lane of University Drive Scheduled to Close Starting on Monday, June 20

Summary of Disruption: The westbound lane of University Drive starting at Red Gum Lane is scheduled to close on Monday, June 20. Drivers going westbound on University Drive will be directed to turn left at Magnolia Lane or Oak Lane to access Parking Structure 1 or the F-series parking lots. The eastbound lane will remain open. The westbound lane is expected to be closed through the end of July.

Reason for Disruption: The lane closure will allow for an expedited rehabilitation of University Drive, which includes a widening of the street, a new layer of asphalt, construction of new crosswalks and improved Americans with Disability Act (ADA) accessibility.

How does this affect me? If accessing Parking Lot J or the lot behind Building One, use the eastbound lane of University Drive starting at Temple Avenue. To access eastbound University Drive from the Kellogg Drive offramp of the I-10 Freeway, drivers should proceed along Kellogg Drive until they reach South Campus Drive, then turn right onto South Campus Drive to Temple Avenue. Make a right turn at Temple Avenue then proceed about one-quarter mile then turn right onto eastbound University Drive. Parking along University Drive is prohibited during the construction work. The lot behind Building One will remain open. ADA parking spots in front of Building One will be relocated to the lot behind the building. The rehabilitation work is expected to cause intermittent noise.

What do I need to do? Expect delays and proceed with caution when approaching the construction zones. Follow detours signs and the directions of traffic officers. Please share this information with others who may have not received this message.
