An early morning concrete pour has been scheduled at the Main Concourse #3 and Upper Level #1 slabs at the College Park Center project site for Wednesday, November 24, 2010 at 12:00am midnight. We will begin with the placement of the Main Concourse #3 slab at 12:00am midnight with the concrete trucks entering and exiting Gate #1 off Pecan Street. Once this slab is completed, we will move the concrete pump to the Northeast corner of the site to place the slab at Upper Level #1. The concrete for this placement will enter the site from Gate #2 off Pecan and exit the site at Gate #3 onto Center Street. The order of the pours and the routing of the concrete trucks have been scheduled this way to minimize the noise imposed on our neighbors at Center Street and make it later in the morning in lieu of midnight. The concrete pour is being made early to help prevent the numerous concrete trucks from interfering with the University traffic on Wednesday.

An early morning concrete pour of the Event Level #5 slab at the CPC project site has been scheduled for Thursday, November 18, 2010 at midnight. We will be closing the section of Pecan Street adjacent to the site at 11:00pm on Wednesday, November 17, 2010 to setup the equipment to begin making the pour at midnight. The pour should be completed prior to 7:00am with the street reopened by 8:00am. All concrete trucks will travel to the concrete pump heading south on Pecan. After they are empty, they will enter the site through gate 2 to washout and exit gate 3 onto Center Street. The concrete pour is being made early to help prevent the numerous concrete trucks from mixing with the University traffic on Thursday.

The parking gate entrance is being relocated to allow for some parking lot improvements. The entrance will not be closed at any time; however,  it will be closed down to one lane at times during the project. The project will be completed with the next 10 days.
