The majority of parking areas on campus are striped on a three-year rotation. Painting is scheduled in two-week time periods to allow for striping to take place in smaller sections and to also allow for rain days. Parking areas that are being painted are generally shut down for two to three hours, but may take longer due to weather conditions such as temperature and humidity, which can cause the paint to dry slower. Painting crews begin work at 5 a.m., and spaces are left available whenever possible. Campus visitors and employees are asked to refrain from moving cones or parking in spaces that are being painted or that have been recently painted so as not to inhibit the painting crew.
Below are the approximate dates in which parking areas will be occupied for painting:
June 1 - June 10
June 13 - June 24
June 27 - July 8
July 11 - July 22
June 1 - July 29
* There will be intermittent closures within ramps, not complete closures, and only one ramp will be worked on at a time.
Any lots on the list above that are not finished will go to the next painting year.
