WSRC/Thompson/Engineering Parking Lot Construction

Western has started construction on the Utility & Tunnel Renewal project in the Alumni/Thompson parking lot.

A temporary entrance and exit to the lot - off of Western Road - is now open for accessible parking ONLY. In addition, only right hand turns are permitted into and to exit the lot. Please do NOT turn left to enter or exit the lot. All Western parking rules apply: Parking Services - Parking & Visitor Services - Western University

Additional parking is available in the South Valley parking lot or Huron parking lots.

Pedestrian access will continue to be available through the construction, although the location of the pathway may shift at times.

Western University has identified that the Thompson/Alumni Parking Lot requires repairs and upgrades that will support current and future development in the area. This project will continue throughout the summer, working on underground services and the conduit tunnel below.

Thank you for your patience and understanding during construction. For more information, visit Facilities Management: https://www.uwo.ca/fm/projects/capital_projects/index.html
