Approved Closure of the Service Drive Next to Smith Memorial Hall

On Wednesday, May 3, the service drive to the north of Smith Memorial Hall, adjacent to Mathews Avenue, will be closed for an end-of-the-semester event hosted by the Bruce D. Nesbitt African American Cultural Center. The closure will be in effect from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. 

During this period, units and departments that typically access this drive for short-term parking or to receive deliveries should use alternate locations. Pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorists are encouraged to avoid the general area because of increased pedestrian traffic along the Main Quad.

Thanks for your assistance in notifying others of this temporary adjustment. Campus street, sidewalk, and pathway closures can be viewed at https://go.fs.illinois.edu/ApprovedClosures. For questions, contact Transportation Systems Manager Stacey DeLorenzo sdeloren@illinois.edu  217-300-1750.
