Access to the Student Union Parking Garage
Construction has begun around the Student Union and will continue over the course of the next few months. This construction will effect traffic flow in and out of the Student Union parking garage. We appreciate your patience as we are challenged with adjusting traffic routing. We are confident the end result of the project will be beneficial to all and will make significant improvements to the beauty of the south end of campus. Below is the impact of the project.
