12/16/24 Erb Memorial Union NW Exterior and University Street Forklift Work Advisory

Posted on by jepeters

The purpose of this email is to inform building occupants of the Erb Memorial Union, and nearby buildings, of the work being done at 7:30 am on Monday 12/16/24, outside of the EMU Fishbowl and Ballroom.

A trailer will be offloading material on University Street, with parking spaces on University Street within the work perimeter unavailable during the duration of the work – see diagram below.

A reach forklift will be hauling material.  A perimeter will be set up to control pedestrian traffic throughout the area. The forklift will be traveling on University Street northbound and onto the NW fishbowl sidewalk to access the offload area when hauling material with a flagger in front.

This may interrupt traffic briefly.  Please follow the directions given by the flaggers if driving in the area.

  • The photo on the left shows the work perimeter that will be taped off, restricting access to pedestrians and building occupants.  Please use the paths indicated by the green arrows to enter/exit the building.
  • The photo on the right shows the doors that will be temporarily restricted (red boxes). The west door entering from University Street will be fully available to use (green box).  In the event of an emergency, all building exits are available to use, including the exits depicted in the photo below.

Please feel free to reach out to Chad Well, EMU Building Superintendent, at (541-346-0692) for any questions.

Thank you!
