Utility infrastructure upgrade going on at the intersection of Center and Wilson Drives
Shown from Bldg. 31A with Bldg. 2 at right, the utility infrastructure upgrade going on at the intersection of Center and Wilson Drives is nearly complete. Road and sidewalk repairs as well as landscaping are all planned for early summer.

Feedback: 

What is the status of the construction project at Center and Wilson Drives? It seems as though the big machinery never moves.

Response from the Office of Research Facilities: The major construction project you reference, to upgrade utility infrastructure, is scheduled to be completed the first week of July. However, the site will begin to visually change by the end of May as the hole will be backfilled with soil and most of the heavy equipment will be moved offsite. The sidewalk, curb and gutter, and asphalt will be rebuilt in late June and sod and other landscaping will be completed by the last week of June. By the second week of July, the roadway and surrounding area should return to normal operations.
