Updated: August 20, 2025

Phase 1.4: Construction of new Box Office/Storm Drain:  includes temporary fencing along impacted areas. Erection and extension of the construction fence will begin the week of March 27, 2025.  Work is scheduled to be completed in May 2025. 

Areas affected by Construction: Phase-1.4:

  • Box office exterior work began on December 15, 2024.
  • A temporary construction fence will be installed along the east and south side of the existing Performing Arts building. Some of the seating area will not be available in front of the building for a portion of the project.  
  • The SSD cart and pedestrians will use the outer sidewalk north of the building along the back side of Faculty Office building, and along the front of Student Union South just east of the building.
  • Temporary delivery routes will come in from the east from Student Union Lane, crossing over in front of the library to the north entrance of the building.
  • Building access will remain open for two entrances at the front east side of the building, and the rear west side of the building. A minimum of 2 entrances will always remain open.
  • Signage will be posted on site for any re-routing. Construction fencing shall restrict unauthorized access to the construction site. Please exercise caution when traveling around the construction site and follow all posted signage. 

Phase 1.1  Underground utility construction includes extending the temporary fencing on the northwest side of the existing Performing Arts Building. Work is in progress and is scheduled to be completed by August 2025.

Areas affected by Construction: Phase-1.1:

  • The current northwest construction fence boundary is located on the lawn area west of the existing Performing Arts building. This fence continues to restrict access to the existing Performing Arts loading dock and a section of the service road. Deliveries to the existing Performing Arts will continue to be relocated to a temporary drop-off zone on the north side of the building. This will be in effect during construction only and is to be used for official deliveries only.
  • The construction fence will be extended past the main sidewalk just northwest of the existing building.  Pedestrian traffic will not be affected.  SSD and other carts will need to use the next sidewalk to the north.  Temporary delivery routes will come in from the east off Student Union Lane. The building entrance on the west side of the building will be closed and enclosed within the construction fence.
  • Signage will be posted on site for any re-routing.

Please reference the disruption map below. The Disruption Plan highlights pedestrian paths, vehicular paths and construction fencing for this project. Further construction notices will be shared as the project progresses.
