Portion of Martin Jischke Drive set to close May 17 for repairs

North Martin Jischke Drive between State Street and the Córdova Recreational Sports Center (CREC) access drive is set to close in two phases to help facilitate pavement repairs.

The first phase will begin May 17 with North Martin Jischke Drive closing between State and Third streets. This closure will include the Third Street intersection as shown on the map below. The detour will include the following:

  • State Street
  • McCormick Road
  • Stadium Avenue
  • North Martin Jischke Drive

Access to the parking lots located southeast of the Third Street intersection, as well as the dining hall dock, will be closed during this phase. Access to these lots and the section of North Martin Jischke Drive between State and Third streets will be reopened following the completion of phase one at the beginning of July. 

The second and final phase of work will begin immediately after completion of the first phase. North Martin Jischke Drive will close from north of the Third Street intersection to just south of the CREC access drive. The detour for that closure will include the following:

  • North Martin Jischke Drive
  • State Street
  • North Russell Street
  • Stadium Avenue

The overall project is scheduled to be complete by early August.

Access to the CREC will be maintained from the north from both North Martin Jischke Drive and Stadium Avenue during both phases.

As a result of the project, on-street parking along North Martin Jischke Drive in the area will be permanently removed.

Additional parking will continue to be available at the CREC parking lot and south of Wood Residence Hall (WOOD) and Duhme Residence Hall (DUHM).
