Summer Construction
During the quieter summer months, Facilities Management schdedules some of its more intrusive work. The campus community can expect occassional delays and detours as a result. Below is a map of some of our planned work this season. Most initiatives are indentified at the beginning of the season, however, we continue to plan and finalize contracts for new work throughout the summer - project details will change. Thank you for your patience.

Temporary service interruptions will continue to be listed on our service interuption calendar (https://www.uwo.ca/fm/uwosi.html), tweeted (@westernufm), and/or distributed through Western Communications' media channels.
