New campus impacts submission site now available
From: Division of Facilities
A new Campus Impacts Submission Site is now available to help inform the campus community about construction activities, closures, and other events that may affect travel around campus. The new site provides a simpler, more user-friendly experience.
When to Submit a Request
General impacts: Any planned campus impacts must be submitted at least three weeks prior to the proposed impact date.
Road closures: Additionally, road closures must include variable message signs to be installed two weeks prior to the closure.
Special events: Traffic disruptions during major campus events (such as move-in, move-out, commencement, and football games) are generally not permitted unless all other alternatives have been exhausted.
Parking impacts: Any impacts to parking must be coordinated with Parking Services parking@vt.edu 540-231-3200.
