Changes will ensure a steady flow of traffic
Several traffic pattern changes on the Lawrenceville campus beginning Sunday, Sept. 2, through Tuesday, Sept. 4 will affect faculty and staff. These will be made to ensure a steady flow of traffic during New Student Move-In Day on Sunday and the return on Monday of continuing resident students, as well as a student event on Sept. 4.
On Sunday, Sept. 2, the main gate will be closed all day. All traffic will enter and exit campus via the south gate. Faculty Drive, which runs from the mall roadway past the Memorial parking lot entrance, will become a one-way road. Cars exiting the Memorial lot will only be permitted to turn left with traffic flowing from the mall toward the back of campus.
On Monday, Sept. 3, the main gate will be open. Faculty Drive will again become a one-way road from 8:30 a.m. until approximately 6 p.m. All traffic will proceed one-way from the mall to College Drive, which runs behind the Science and Technology Center toward the back of campus. Cars exiting the Memorial lot will only be permitted to turn left. This means that cars exiting campus from the lot will do so by first driving around the back of campus and leaving by way of the south or main gates.
Please plan accordingly as a large influx of continuing resident students are expected on Monday. Traffic will be heaviest along the mall. In the event of traffic problems that day, the main gate may be closed for a period of time and traffic re-directed via the south gate.
On Tuesday, Sept. 4, a portion of South Mall Drive on the Campus Mall will be closed to traffic from 2 to 6 p.m. The road will be closed from in front of the Student Recreation Center to Alumni Gym to accommodate an event, Bronc A Palozza. Alumni Drive, which runs between Alumni Gym and Daly Dining Hall, will remain open for motorists to access the Campus Mall exit.
