Campus Planning, Design and Construction has installed fencing around the future site of the new residence hall along Ostrom Avenue as construction gets underway on the building, announced as part of the first phase of the University’s Strategic Housing Plan last year.
Sidewalks in the area have been closed, and pedestrian detours are in place. Directional signage will be in place at all intersections, advising pedestrians of the sidewalk closures and directing them to safe paths of travel.
Pedestrians along Ostrom Avenue will be directed to walk along the east (Thornden Park) side of the road between Euclid Avenue and University Place, and to cross the street at the intersection of Ostrom and University Place to walk toward the center of North Campus. Access to ADA-accessible walkways and ramps will be maintained at the southwest corner of the Ostrom/University Place intersection. Pedestrians along University Place will be directed to walk along the north (Dellplain/Ernie Davis) side of the street.
Fencing and pedestrian detours will be in place surrounding the construction site for the next two years as the project continues.
