The goal is to inform the Campus Community in advance of what is going to happen, where and when, so that those affected can best plan. Also project managers would like to be alerted about any important activities that must be accommodated during construction. More than ever, it will be important that Stanford faculty and staff provide visitors, vendors, truck drivers, caterers etc. We believe that using the information tools available, and with the support and cooperation of the Stanford community, inconveniences can be kept to a minimum. Following Commencement, a start will be made on a new and significant set of projects in the combined Near West and Medical School campus areas.
Some projects provide new or renovated space for teaching and research.
Others achieve the necessary site clearance, utility infrastructure and parking adjustments. The initial impact will be felt by regular users of Campus Drive between Roth Way and Via Ortega. This will be followed by a series of changes to the location of parking on the west side of campus. These changes, over a period of two years, will replace parking lost to building sites, and provide temporary parking to replace surface parking lost to parking structures under construction. Medical School improvements to the Grant, Always, Lane and Edwards sections of the E.D.Stone Building - September 2000 to August 2005.
