The University will temporarily close some parking areas to accommodate events planned for September 5.  On that day, the University will kick off its comprehensive approach to wellbeing, called Thrive, and celebrate groundbreaking ceremonies for the Sutton Center at historic W. N. Reynolds Gymnasium and the McCreary Field House.

Parking lots to be affected include F, U and U2:

— Lot F: Motor vehicles should be removed from Lot F by 5 p.m. on Wednesday, September 3. A limited number of spaces will be available to faculty and staff in Lot F on Thursday, September 4 until 5 p.m. Lot F will be closed all day on Friday, September 5. The lot is located on Wingate Road between the football practice field and the Facilities Management and Campus Services buildings.

— Lots U and U2: Motor vehicles should be out of the lots U and U2 by 5 p.m. on September 4. Lot U will be partially closed on September 5 and Lot U2 will be completely closed on that day. Both lots are near Palmer and Piccolo residence halls.

To assist faculty and staff who normally park in those lots, shuttle service will be available on September 5 to assist any who opt to park, instead, in a University lot off Long Drive, across from Winston-Salem First Church.  A shuttle will run from that lot to the southern area of campus from 7 to 9 a.m. and again from 4 to 6 p.m. on September 5.

The University appreciates the cooperation and patience of faculty and staff who typically park in these lots.
