PROJECT  SUMMARY:
With the help of a grant from the State of Michigan, the university will begin the construction project to reconfigure Oliver Street, the campus road that runs between Stadium and Oakland Drives.

The project will take place in three stages over the summer and will be completed in August, in time for the start of fall semester.

The total scope of the project will include a new roadway and sidewalks, bicycle paths, and reconstructed parking lots.

Also included in the project is a stormwater management plan to prevent building and parking lot run-off from entering the Arcadia Creek watershed.
