About This Project

The southbound right-turn lane from Mansion Lane to University Drive was removed, and the sidewalk reconstructed. To decrease pedestrian crossing distance the diagonal crosswalk from Building 1 to the corner of Building 94 was replaced with a perpendicular crosswalk; all four corners of the intersection are now connected with new crosswalks with highly reflective crosswalk pattern. New more effective signs were installed, including a flashing beacon on each direction of University Drive to give motorists advanced warning of pedestrians on the crosswalks; new and existing cubs were painted indicating no parking zones on side streets.

The speed bump near the intersection was removed, and a new raised crosswalk between Building 1 and the quad area was also installed.
