Demolition Continues
The work on the former Publications building will continue this week. While most of the work to date has been on the interior, work on the exterior will begin soon.
Demolition of 13 and 14 Dog Lane (former Select Physical Therapy and Nayden Health Clinic buildings, respectively) will begin soon. As with the former Publications building, the first steps will be to complete any interior work before anything will be done to the exterior of the building.
And, the University will begin work on its sanitary sewer upgrade next week. The sewer line runs along Storrs Road, but most of the work will be done underground. Traffic in both directions will be maintained, although it may be slower at times to accommodate the work in progress.
