New signage and defined landscaping enhance the aesthetic appeal of the area while orienting visitors and inviting exploration. The street realignment also is an integral component of increasing efficiency and safety on the west side of campus.

鈥淲ith extra parking, a new shuttle stop, protected bike lanes, raised pedestrian crossings and additional sidewalks, this project continues our effort of focusing on and improving all modes of transportation on our campus,鈥 said Jeremiah Dumas, MSU鈥檚 executive director of transportation.聽聽
