The initial site work for Storrs Center is now well underway. This work includes the demolition of the former Publications building (1266 Storrs Road), the former Select Physical Therapy building (13 Dog Lane), and the former Nayden Health Clinic (14 Dog Lane). Work on the Bishop Center parking lots has also begun.
Each project requires specific equipment and deliveries of materials. There is also removal of materials associated with the demolitions in particular. The amount of construction-related traffic in the project area – currently centered around the Storrs Road/Dog Lane intersection up to Bishop Lane – has increased steadily as work progresses.
Residents, visitors, and workers in the area are advised to proceed with caution through this area. While every effort is being made to manage traffic flow, there may be delays as the construction vehicles navigate the site.
Please remember to drive slowly through the construction area and maintain a safe distance between yourself and oversized vehicles.
