Closure of the John and Anne Grove May 23 until August 11

Dear colleagues,

In support of the New Hanszen College Wing Project, a fire apparatus driving lane will be installed, which will serve the new building and will begin on Monday, May 23. The installation will enable accessible egress paths for sidewalks to and from the South Colleges through the John and Anne Grove, which will also require the closure of the Grove for the duration of the summer.

The fencing installation for the site begins on Monday, May 23. Construction is expected to be completed before Orientation week, August 12, 2022. To view the plan outlining the anticipated fencing in the Grove, please click here. Pedestrian traffic will need to use alternate paths from the South Colleges away from the Grove for the next 12 weeks. For questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact Faten Tayeh (ft11@rice.edu).
