Construction is set to take place on Dickson Street and Upper Service Drive, resulting in two full road closures. 

Starting Monday, July 8, both lanes of Dickson Street from Duncan Avenue to just before Arkansas Avenue will be closed to allow for curb reconstruction.  

Also starting Monday, July 8, Upper Service Drive, the exit drive from Lot 417 (previously Lot 50C), will be closed for water line repairs. 

Vehicles parked in Lot 417, or those driving to the top of Dickson Street by the 1021 Food Hall will be restricted to one exit route: travel south by Humphreys Hall and Yocum Hall, passing through Lot 418 (previously Lot 50B) and exit onto Fairview Street.  

Those who typically access the area of Dickson Street between Duncan Avenue and Arkansas Avenue can utilize University Avenue and Center Street as a detour route. 

View the university campus map to see the locations of the closures and find an alternative route around the construction.
