West Campus Construction Update: Mid- to Late July 2024

The ongoing site work on the west side of campus has shifted again this week, leading to new street and sidewalk closures in the area.

Starting on Monday, July 8, the south lane of Van Buren Street will be closed until Friday, July 12. The sidewalk along the south side of the street will remain closed and fenced as construction will continue in that area.

Henry Street will reopen to traffic, though asphalt repairs will be needed later this month (repairs are expected to take one or two days).

A common access point to the west side of campus, Almond Street (under Rt. 81), will be closed at Burt Street beginning on July 8. It will remain closed for a utility crossing for roughly two to three weeks. A detour will be in place: Traffic will be rerouted via Taylor Street to Oakwood Avenue to Martin Luther King to Renwick Avenue and then back to Van Buren Street.
