Beginning Wednesday, Aug. 27, contractors will be removing the sidewalk on the north side of Ritter Planetarium and Observatory for replacement. During these repairs, it will be necessary to close the north entrance to Ritter Planetarium and Observatory — leading to Bancroft Street — and the east entrance (door 3) to Savage and Associates Business Complex.

All other door access will remain open.

The work is scheduled to be completed by Friday, Sept. 5, pending weather conditions.

For questions regarding the project, call Pat Blevins, structural manager, at 419.530.1425.
