***UC Garage Demolition Begins this Weekend!!!***

The IMPORTANT INFORMATION BELOW is intended for those who work in or 
near the UC during spring break, and for students or guests who may be 
visiting the UC during spring break. Encourage friends and co-workers to join 
the listserv to receive similar messages in the future.

As we begin the demolition of the UC parking garage this weekend, we wanted 
to take some time to make sure you have all the information needed to make 
Monday’s (March 19) return to work go as smoothly as possible. Please take 
note of the following events that will begin in and around the UC this 
weekend. 

•The Shiloh entrance to the UC (from the Back Plaza) closes permanently 
today by 3pm.

•The garage entrance to the UC (from the parking garage) becomes 
inaccessible while emergency egress corridors are constructed. Once the 
corridors are completed, this exit remains EMERGENCY EXIT ONLY throughout 
Phase 1 of the construction, as does the exit from the Hermitage Room and 
Shiloh Room.

•All pedestrian bridges to/from the Back Plaza will be removed, with the 
exception of the bridge nearest Staff Lot 9 that connects Haslam Business 
Building to the back side of the Hill. 

•Andy Holt Avenue between Phillip Fulmer Way and Volunteer Boulevard closes 
PERMANENTLY to vehicular traffic, but one sidewalk remains open to 
pedestrian traffic.

•The north side of Staff Lot 9 (closest to the UC) closes permanently.

•The only vehicular access to Staff Lot 9 will be from Peyton Manning Pass.

•Phillip Fulmer Way between Cumberland Avenue and Andy Holt Avenue is 
completely closed to both pedestrian and vehicular traffic beginning Sunday, 
March 18 through Tuesday, March 20.

What does this mean to you?

•If you typically turn onto Phillip Fulmer Way from Cumberland Avenue to come 
to work, or if you typically access Lot 9 from Andy Holt Avenue, you won’t be 
able to take either route, so plan for a few extra minutes to get around to the 
entrance off Peyton Manning Pass.

•When walking between Lot 9 and the UC on Monday and Tuesday, the 
suggested route is to use the Cumberland Avenue entrance, accessible by 
walking along Andy Holt Avenue, Volunteer Boulevard, and through “the pit” 
(the small Staff Lot 12 beside Temple Court).

•The first floor entrance from Phillip Fulmer (the three glass doors beside the 
round UT Book Store sign) will be inaccessible March 18-20.

•UC guest parking will be established in the Volunteer Hall Garage. Enter on 
the White Avenue side. Rates are expected to be the same as those in the UC 
garage.

•Those needing handicapped parking are encouraged to use the Volunteer Hall 
garage rather than Staff Lot 9. Come down James Agee to the UC rather than 
16th street to avoid possible complications with construction on the corner of 
Volunteer Boulevard and Cumberland Avenue.

Thanks and have a great weekend!
