Health Campus Pedestrian Bridge Construction, Part 1

On Friday, August 1 Neeser Construction will be mobilizing near the Health Sciences Building for construction of the Health Campus Pedestrian Bridge. This is a new spine connection between the Engineering & Industry Building (under construction) and HSB. The area impacted is denoted by the blue line in the image below.

Due to this activity, the north entrance to HSB will be closed through the duration of the project. Additionally, the sidewalk along Providence Drive next to HSB will be closed. Pedestrians should use the sidewalk on the north side of Providence Dr.

At this phase of the project there are no intended impacts to parking. As we approach Winter Break there will be an additional, temporary loss of parking in South Lot (adjacent to Wells Fargo Sport Complex, Student Union, and EIB construction site). This will be to assemble the spine structure, which will be erected over Providence Dr. during the Winter Break. More details on this to follow.

Please be aware of construction personnel and heavy equipment in and around the job site. Over the next several weeks there will be intermittent single-lane closures, mostly in the east-bound lane.
