Parking lot construction to be completed in early August

Construction in the parking lot west of the Abraham O. Smoot Administration Building is anticipated to be completed by Aug. 8. In the meantime, the lot is closed.

Physical Facilities is installing a 14-inch irrigation water line for various parts of campus. Crews previously drilled under North Campus Drive from the parking lot to connect the line with the irrigation canal. They are also installing larger planters, new sycamore trees, and new light poles.

In addition, they will install a storm sewer line for the Jesse Knight Building. Once the installations are complete, a contractor will repave the parking lot and paint new lines for stalls.
