New Campus Traffic Pattern Effective Monday, June 1, 2009

Due to ongoing North Instructional Building construction, we will be adjusting campus traffic patterns as needed, particularly as involves the roadways surrounding the Quad.  Beginning on Monday, June 1, 2009, vehicles entering the campus via the Hall of Fame Terrace Main Gate will not be permitted to turn right as this portion of the roadway will be closed to vehicular traffic as will the roadway in front of Philosophy Hall, Gould Memorial Library and Language Hall.  Please note that the visitor parking lot will not be available.  However, the roadway in front of the Brown Student Center will be open to two-way traffic.  Vehicles that do not pull into the parking lot immediately on the left after driving in through the Main Gate will need travel straight to the next intersection where they can turn right in front of Meister Hall.  This stretch of roadway will now be one-way only, east to west.  Please note that the roadway adjacent to Havemeyer Annex, Meister Hall and Sage Hall will also be one-way, north to south.  Vehicles may then access campus buildings and other parking areas via the Meister Hall/Havemeyer Annex or Language Hall/Butler Hall roadways.  Also, due to the road closures and one-way restrictions mentioned above, a majority of drivers leaving the campus will need to travel campus roadways on the 180th Street side in order to return to the Main Gate.  Please be advised that signs will be posted and, at least in the beginning, Public Safety Officers will assist in directing traffic.

 

We have attached a color-coded map for your information and use, and we suggest that you contact Public Safety at ext. 5923 if you have any questions.  We will continue to update you on any traffic pattern/parking changes as these occur and urge your full cooperation as we attempt to move forward with major campus improvements while providing a safe environment for all college constituents.  Thank you.
