MSU roof remediation/construction project update:  Please be advised that the parking areas adjacent to the MSU metered lot are currently accessible, while the metered lot continues to be blocked-off during this phase of the roof project.

From now through Aug. 22 there will be intermittent periods when both the surrounding lots and the metered parking lot will be blocked off in order to reduce the potential for overspray contact or damage to vehicles.

Please note when the barriers are put in place to block parking, it is being done to protect your vehicles.

Please be sure to share this information with those who may be impacted by this and not have access to email. Thank you for your continued patience as this project progresses.
