Travel restrictions near Memorial Mall area to continue through summer

As part of the University Hall project, some travel restrictions near the Memorial Mall area will remain in place through the summer.

Some parking spaces along Oval Drive near University Hall have been removed. While Oval Drive is still open, motorists should be aware of construction fencing in front of University Hall. Fencing is also up along the northside of University Hall, closing off the walkway between Schleman Hall. The walkway between University and Stone Halls will remain open throughout the project.

Additionally, fencing is expected to be installed around Heavilon Hall in late June with the goal of demolition for the building starting in early September after preparatory work. As a result of the fencing going up, the walkways near the Brown Laboratory of Chemistry and Grissom Hall will be closed. Pedestrians will be able to walk between Heavilon Hall and the Wetherill Laboratory of Chemistry.

Motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists should use caution in the area and obey all posted signs.

Questions about the project may be directed to Cy Rangel, project executive, at rangel7@purdue.edu. Parking questions may be directed to Parking Facilities at 765-494-9497 or parking@purdue.edu between 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The lobby closes at 4 p.m.
