Lane shift on South Donahue Drive in front of the Plainsman Park improvements construction site.
Several construction projects will begin in May as the campus transitions into the summer months.
“These projects are designed to make improvements to infrastructure and move forward with capital projects during the summer semester when they will have the lowest impact on the campus community,” said Wendy Peacock, Facilities Management director of Construction Management.
Detailed maps of all the projects listed below can be found on the Facilities Management Closures and Outages page.
