- A crane lift at Evans Scholar will take place next Monday and possibly Tuesday, the 16th and 17th November 2009. Work will start at 8.00am and probably finish around 4.00pm. During this time, steel will be lifted from a semi located on the north side of University Place and parked outside of Willard Hall. Their will be one lane open on University Place that will be available for traffic during the lift. Their may be minor temporary inconveniences during this time. These will be controlled with "Flaggers" when they consider it necessary to do so for the Publics safety, otherwise you should have free access to the buildings and parking lots on either side of University Place or leading from it. these arrangements have been made in an effort to safeguard all members of staff, students and the general public. It is through the collaboration of the following bodies that these arrangements have bee put in place, University Police, Risk Management, University Housing, Facilities Management, City of Evanston Street and Sanitation, Evanston Fire Department and the Contractor.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate in contacting me. I can be reached either by e-mail at a-mcgonigle@northwestern.edu or via
