Campus Construction Update for July 30

These are among the construction activities scheduled July 30-Aug. 5 at the University of Wyoming:

Annual Steam System Shutdown (UW Operations) -- The annual campus steam shutdown will continue through the afternoon of Aug. 21.

The shops will stripe lots and curbs, and replace signs as needed across the campus. Sections of the lots may be barricaded during the day, as needed, for safety. Work is scheduled for the Ivinson lot for the week of July 31-Aug. 4. Please be cautious of crews and equipment in the area.
