The project consists of re-grading and paving the Senior Center Parking Lot and realigning the railroad pathway that is adjacent to the Senior Center. Senior Center parking and driving areas will be affected, but there will be ADA accessible parking available throughout the duration of the project. Access to the Campus Parking lot, behind City Hall, and to Central District Health, will be available throughout the entirety of the project. Access from 1^st Street to the Campus Parking lot and pathway adjacent to the Senior Center are anticipated to be disrupted on August 25^th through September 13^th for excavation, grading and paving. During this time, access will be closed and signed.  Access will be available to the campus from the Park Street entrance.

Proper signage will be present to guide pedestrians away from the construction and back to the pathway that is not under construction.
