Sexton Construction Update ‑ December 19

Posted by Facilities Management on December 19, 2016 in Facilities Management

Excavation activities on Sexton campus for the construction of two new buildings is nearing completion.

On the Innovation Site, next to C and C1, excavation and rock breaking is suspended until January 2017 and should be complete by the 13.   On the Morris street site, rock breaking will continue until Jan. 13, 2017 with a brief pause for holidays.
 
The sidewalk on the north side of Morris Street is expected to close the week of December 19 to allow for the next phase of construction. Pedestrians are urged to cross the street when travelling between areas of Sexton campus and exercise caution at all times.
 
During the week of December 19  the entrance to Sexton campus from Morris street will be closed to all traffic except for construction vehicles.  Several dozen more parking spots will be lost to construction but to compensate for this, the Pay and Display parking area in the Rosina lot will become available to those with General Parking Permits. The changes will be timed to co-incide so there will be no loss in parking.

The IDEA Project is a transformational $64-million investment to Dalhousie’s Engineering and Architecture campus and will be complete in spring 2018.
