Heavy traffic anticipated Aug. 17 and 18 for KU Student Housing move-in days
LAWRENCE — University of Kansas employees and the Lawrence community should anticipate heavy traffic around the Lawrence campus on two days this week — Thursday, Aug. 17, and Friday, Aug. 18 — during KU Student Housing’s two-day move-in process for its residents.
Traffic around Daisy Hill is expected to be heaviest from about 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. The busiest intersections will likely be 15th and Iowa streets and 23rd Street and Naismith Drive.
There also may be increased traffic at:
1. 11th and Louisiana streets, location of GSP and Corbin halls.
2. 19th Street at both Ousdahl Road and Ellis Drive, which are the entrances for Downs Residence Hall and Stouffer Place apartments.
Maps of each area, which were emailed to incoming residents and their families, can be found at the KU Student Housing website at housing.ku.edu/move.
If announcements are needed related to severe weather, tune to Kansas Public Radio at 91.5 FM.
An early move-in for band members, sorority recruitment and other residents took place Aug. 12.
For media:
Media are welcome to attend the event, but news vehicles will not be allowed to cross Irving Hill Bridge and enter the line of cars going to Daisy Hill.
