As part of the Jen-Hsun Huang and Lori Mills Huang Collaborative Innovation Complex project, a crane will be working in the area between Johnson Hall and Plageman Student Health Center on Tuesday, July 22. Traffic on SW 26th St. will be controlled by flaggers at times to allow truck access to the Johnson Hall fire lane.

This project may increase construction noise in the area.
