Construction Work: Parking Lot 1 - Dec 3, 2024 - Jan 13, 2025

From Tuesday, December 3, 2024, to Monday, January 13, 2025, construction work will be at Parking Lot 1, South of the Child Development Center and North of the Housing Apartments. The work consists of the removal of Solar Panels and Electrical Equipment. The work will occur in sections of approximately two solar carports at a time, as indicated in the attached diagram. The parking spaces where the work occurs will have signs and cones placed at least one day before the work occurs. When the work occurs, the area will be delineated and taped off. Each section will take approximately one week but may be completed sooner.

For this work to occur safely and smoothly, please avoid parking in the spaces with construction signs. The construction crews will redirect and instruct vehicles and pedestrians when needed. If there are any concerns regarding this work, please do not hesitate to contact Facilities Planning, Design, and Construction at (310) 243-3826 or fpdc@csudh.edu.

We truly appreciate your cooperation while we make improvements to our campus.
