Cornell finishes Hoy Road early, reopens in time for students to arrive

Photo: Hoy RoadIthaca, 21 August 08 -- Hoy Road, the "main entrance" to the Cornell University campus that's been closed since late May, reopened today ahead of schedule. The road was slated to be opened this weekend for the arrival of Cornell's latest crop of freshmen, and then close again until mid-September, but closing off pedestrian access for the last few weeks allowed crews to finish the entire project early.

With Hoy Road reopened, Cornell's East Hill Shuttle Bus, available for staff and faculty, will resume its route to central campus via Hoy Road instead of through Collegetown.

14850 Today suggests avoiding roads on, through, or near the Cornell campus on Friday and Saturday if at all possible. Campus Road and the North Campus and West Campus residential areas will be particularly busy. Cornell staff commuters who normally park in A Lot on Pleasant Grove Road are being asked to park elsewhere tomorrow.
