A stormwater and sewer construction project will shutdown Vine Street from 16th Street (left) to N. Antelope Valley Parkway. The closure will begin Oct. 3 and will be completed by Oct. 24.

A stormwater and sewer construction project will restrict traffic along Vine Street through City Campus Oct. 3-24.

The work — which is related to Nebraska Engineering’s $115 million Kiewit Hall project — will be focused between N. Antelope Valley Parkway and 16th Street. Pedestrian traffic will not be affected.

To minimize impacts on campus the campus community, construction coincides with two Husker football road games and a bye week. Work will be completed before the Oct. 29 homecoming game with Illinois.

The project will allow limited vehicle access (from the east) to parking lots by the Courtyards residence complex. The south entrance to the Abel-Sandoz parking lot will remain open.
