SUBJECT:    CONSTRUCTION ALERT – Voigt Drive Improvements and Campus Point Drive Realignment Project Phase 1: Voigt Drive Evening Closure - Tuesday, December 3, 2019

Project Location/Description:

Due to inclement weather conditions this past week, an additional evening closure will occur to complete the initial construction work for the Voigt Drive Improvements and Campus Point Drive Realignment Project. On Tuesday, December 3, Voigt Drive, between Campus Point Drive and the Voigt Bridge, will close from 9:00pm to 5:00am to allow construction crews to return.

Immediate Parking Lot, Street Traffic, and Pedestrian Impacts:

During the closure, vehicles, bicycles, and pedestrians will be detoured around the construction area using Campus Point Drive, Medical Center Drive, the new Gilman Bridge, and Gilman Drive. P701 Parking lot will remain accessible at all times during construction hours. Emergency vehicles will have full access along Voigt Drive during construction hours. Flaggers will be present at both entrances of the construction area to help manage the emergency vehicle traffic and safely escort them through the construction site, if necessary.

In an effort to provide advanced notice to frequent travelers of the area, large electrical messaging boards will be placed along Voigt Drive one week in advance of the work, confirming the dates and times of the closures. Evening work and construction sequencing are scheduled to minimize confusion and alleviate traffic congestion during peak travel times.
