Update: Traffic, parking disruptions

Here are notes on some current and upcoming disruptions on the West Lafayette campus.

-- Through May 8, on the northwest corner of the Mechanical Engineering Building (near the Purdue Mall side), the sidewalk will be blocked intermittently by fencing. An ADA ramp is being moved from the west side to a temporary ramp on the north side of the building. For questions or concerns, contact Doug Edging at dledging@purdue.edu or 49-48091.

-- Beginning today, CityBus will not be able to pick up passengers in front of the terminal at the Purdue Airport, due to construction of the Niswonger Aviation Technology Building. Buses will instead use the Student Lot north of the railroad tracks on the east side of Airport Road for dropoff and pickup. This change will last for 14-17 days so that crews can remove the pavement just south of the railroad tracks and install new pavement. The back gate will be opened to allow traffic and service to AERO east of NISW. The contractor will install temporary access just west of the existing entrance for emergency vehicles and car access only.
