CONSTRUCTION ALERT - I-5 Switch Station - Greenhouse Lane Impact: Intersection of Greenhouse Lane and Gilman Drive

Project Location/Description:
 
The new I-5 Switch Station, located in existing parking lot P510, will provide approximately 3,500 new gross square feet to house medium voltage equipment and control.  The facility will provide power to the existing Revelle Switch Station and North Campus Switch Station, and will improve power reliability to the West Campus.  For this phase of the project, a crane will be erected by the Greenhouse Lane and Gilman Drive intersection to set steel on the building. 
 
Work will begin on September 08, 2020 and will be completed by September 11, 2020.  The hours of work will be from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
 
Immediate Parking Lot, Street Traffic, and Pedestrian Impacts:
 
Traffic delays on Greenhouse Lane will occur due to a single-lane closure on Greenhouse Lane between September 08, 2020 and September 11, 2020.  Traffic will be controlled by flag persons when the lane is closed. Pedestrian sidewalks on Greenhouse Lane will also be impacted by this closure.  Please follow signage and allow extra time while traveling on Greenhouse Lane.
