Arlington Avenue traffic to shift March 28 as construction continues
By Staff : March 24th, 2016
Traffic patterns on Arlington Avenue between Byrne Road and Detroit Avenue near UT’s Health Science Campus are scheduled to shift next week as the city’s construction project continues.
“Phase two will involve construction of the south half of Arlington Avenue and installation of a new bike path,” Doug Collins, UT director of grounds and off-site facilities, said. “During this phase, the south half of the road will be closed, and one lane of traffic in each direction will be maintained on the north half of the road.”
Weather-permitting, that shift is scheduled to begin Monday, March 28.
Phase two of the construction project is expected to last six to seven weeks, Collins said.
In addition, Health Science Campus entrances off Arlington Avenue are scheduled to be closed over the weekend from Friday at 5 p.m. through Monday at 7 a.m. on:
• April 8 — entrance 1 and 4 (West Medical Loop and East Medical Loop);
• April 15 — entrance 2 (Hospital Drive); and
• April 22 — Entrance 3 (Library Circle).
Detour signs will be placed prior to entrance closings.
Those who frequent The University of Toledo Medical Center and Health Science Campus are encouraged to use the Glendale Avenue entrance as the construction project will continue through June.
