Work to begin on pedestrian walkway

Work will begin this week on Phase II of the project to convert the former Alumni Drive into a pedestrian walkway through campus. The project is anticipated to be complete by mid-April. Construction fencing will be installed around the project perimeter (east of Duerksen Hall to just south of McKinley Hall along Alumni Walk) for the duration of the project and will, at times, require temporary pedestrian detours. Beginning this week, the sidewalk between Jardine and McKinley Hall will be closed. The contractor for the project is Conco Construction.
