Rock Creek ADA Intersection Improvement Project
Three Rock Creek Campus intersections are being modified for universal access and accessibility for our community (see phases 1, 2, and 3). Construction efforts will begin on October 8, 2024, and will be completed in three distinct phases by the end of January 2025. Improvements will impact pedestrians, cyclists, bus riders and drivers, vehicular traffic, and deliveries.

- Additional traffic and waiting times to enter the campus
- One-way traffic during certain phases of construction
- Construction activities will possibly include odors, dust, loud noises, and vibrations
- No parking on the roadway during construction
- The entrance to Parking Lot E will be closed during part of the construction
- Delivery breezeway between Building 9 and Lot E to be blocked during construction with alternate areas for unloading
- Buses will continue on route – however, they may be delayed during construction
- Work will occur Monday – Friday, from 7am-4pm
