At approximately 10:50 AM on Monday, March 8, ComEd Feeder C473 failed disrupting electricity to parts of the Evanston Campus and City of Evanston . The Utility restored power at 12:05 PM, excluding the district heating and cooling plant which remained without power until 1:37 PM. During that time, no steam was generated resulting in cooler than normal domestic hot water and space temperatures. Full steam restoration occurred at 2:30 PM.
- A crane lift at Evans Scholar will take place next Monday the 8th March 2010. Work will start at 8.00am and probably finish around 12.00pm. During this time, roofing materials 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 will be a second set of personnel located on the north side of Evans Scholar, outside of Willard Hall. 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 been 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.
