The following message is from Facilities Services:

Beginning Wednesday, February 26 through Friday, February 28, tractor trailers will deliver crane parts for assembly on the Campus Center construction site on College Avenue. Once assembled the crane will aid in the construction of the structural steel frame of the building, which will start taking shape from March 3 through the end of May.

During this time, College Avenue will experience increased tractor-trailer traffic. This traffic will be heavy initially with the delivery of the crane, but will decrease rapidly to an average of two or three trailers every three days. The disruption to normal traffic flow is expected to be about five minutes per trailer as they arrive and depart the construction site. Due to the restricted turning area, use of the end of Parcell Street at College Avenue is necessary to accommodate these deliveries.

Deliveries are expected to occur between class changes and are not expected to disrupt foot traffic along College Avenue.

Greetings Campus Community !

In anticipation of the upcoming Spring Break schedule, and with the possibility of inclement weather during the break, we ask that all vehicles left on campus unattended follow standard UMW rules for inclement weather.

ALL unattended vehicles during Spring Break may be parked in any of the following locations:

-Alvey Drive parking deck (floors 1,2 and 3)

-Sunken Road lot # 11 & # 13 located next to Alvey Deck

-Battlefield lot #33 located on Hanover street

Eagle Landing residents should leave unattended vehicles on the covered floors of that deck (levels 3 & 4).

It is essential that all departments with UMW assigned vehicles also adhere to this request.

In the event of bad weather, this plan will support an effective and efficient lot clean-up. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and support.

In the event of a Snow Emergency Declaration, all other lots/areas will need to be clear of vehicles, and follow any other Declaration instructions.

All designated handicapped parking spaces, except those at Woodard Campus Center, are exempt and those spaces remain accessible.

Please contact the Parking Management Office with any questions.
