Due to area water shortages, Utah State University has been asked to reduce the amount of water used to irrigate the campus landscape.  We will comply by cutting back to watering every other day.  As a result, you may see some areas of campus appear stressed.  This will not cause irreparable damage to the landscape.  Please bear with us as we do our part to conserve this valuable resource.

Starting September 2nd, Spindler Construction will be removing and replacing the asphalt path on Old Main Hill that begins at the flagpole and runs southwest down to 400 North. The upper section of stairs SOUTH of Old Main (NOT the stairs directly in front of Old Main), will be removed and replaced as well. The lower set was replaced a few years ago and will not be affected.Work will begin by removing the old asphalt pathway and the stairs all at once. Then, the contractor will replace the pathway with new concrete, one section at a time, starting at the flagpole and working down. Once the path is complete, the pathway will be re-opened and work on the stairs will begin. Due to the nature of the project, access to campus from the southwest corner of campus on 400 North and the southwest parking lot located on 400 North will be interrupted and vice versa. The contractor will be posting signage to help direct pedestrian and bicycle traffic around the construction areas but we request the help and patience of all affected. Work on this project is expected to run through the last week of November, weather permitting. For any questions or concerns, please contact Quin Whitaker at Facilities Planning, Design & Construction: 797-8064 or quin.whitaker@usu.edu
