Please be advised that a section of College Avenue between Durkee Street and Drew Street will be closed to traffic from October 21-November 1 to accommodate construction crews working on the West Campus building project. Sidewalks on the north side of College Avenue and the south side up to the project site will remain open.
During this phase of the project, Boldt will install 46 modular units, each approximately 72 feet long by 13 feet wide, to form the top two floors of the West Campus building. These units will be connected and stacked to create fully constructed apartments, which will be available for rent in the fall of 2025. Using modular units helps expedite the overall project timeline.
The modular units will be transported along College Avenue and staged between Durkee and Drew streets before being lifted into place by crane. The temporary street closures are necessary for the safety of workers, local businesses and their customers, and area residents, including the Lawrence community.
