Pardon Our Dust -- November 19 Update

   

Lane adjustments will start November 20th at 1200 West/ College Drive near the pedestrian bridge construction site. Please be alert and use caution.

Construction is underway on the new I-15 pedestrian bridge. The bridge will connect UVU’s main campus with the Orem Central FrontRunner Station. It will provide a safe and sheltered route to the main campus from the west. UDOT, UVU, and UTA expect the project to be completed by December 2020.

To provide appropriate construction conditions, 50 parking spots in the northwest corner of lot L-14 are also fenced off.

Construction of the Scott C. Keller Building, the new home of the Woodbury School of Business, is also now underway. This facility will provide 205,000 square feet of learning space. It will house the Bloomberg Lab, Entrepreneurship Institute, Money Management Resource Center, SmartLab, and a grand auditorium for lectures and special events. Classrooms will be outfitted with lecture-capture technology to help students learn remotely.

Parking at the front of the campus in the vicinity of the new business building will be impacted, starting in mid-December.

This semester, there has been an average of 1,000 empty parking spots on campus per day. This is partly due to the free public transportation services offered to UVU students and employees through UTA. UVU students currently make up 46% of student ridership on the Utah Valley Express and are the largest demographic riding FrontRunner trains.

We will send updates as construction continues.
