South McKinley Drive is closed permanently from Nelson Commons to South Green Drive. (It was between the new residence hall, building 157, and the Wolfe Street parking lot.) During construction of the new residence hall, South Green Drive was closed from Hoover House to Wolfe Street, but that is now open, again.
Permanent Changes
South McKinley Avenue
South McKinley Avenue is closed from just South of Nelson Commons to South Green Drive (between the new residence hall and the Wolfe Street parking lot), as shown on the illustration, above.
West Mulberry Street, South Court Street, and Park Place
The intersection of West Mulberry Street, South Court Street, and Park Place (in front of the new Baker University Center) has been re-constructed and those streets are now open to traffic:
The last block of South Court Street, from President Street to Mulberry Street and Park Place, is open to traffic one-way only, from Mulberry Street and Park Place toward President Street. Construction is underway to provide a bike path and wider sidewalks on this block of Court Street, to accommodate the heavier foot and bicycle traffic to and from the new Baker University Center.
Park Place is open to traffic in both directions.
West Mulberry Street is open to traffic one-way only, from Richland Avenue to Court Street and Park Place.
