Sidewalk lighting project begins May 22

On Monday, May 22, the sidewalk lighting project begins for the south side of the main campus. This project will add new lighting to the walkways and approaches around Montgomery, Logan and Mason halls as well as the sidewalk to the east of parking lot 16.  Occasionally, it will be necessary to close the south lane of Foundation Drive to complete installation of utilities and light fixtures.  The lane closures will be during normal work hours of 7 a.m.-3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday with the contractor providing traffic control.  Please use caution when entering the main campus during these hours.

Your patience is appreciated as we work to improve the safety and security of the main campus. Please don’t hesitate to contact Dave Bretscher, director of Facilities Services, at 786.2238 with any issues related to this project.
