UAF News

As part of the engineering facility construction, upgrades are being made to the Duckering northwest entrance and stairwell. Work includes replacement of the entry doors and sidewalk, new stair treads, fire door reconstruction, and installation of electronic locks. The work will be performed in two phases. Sidewalk replacement and interior fire code work (second level only) will occur over the next four weeks. The remaining work will occur between Labor Day and late October.

Access to Duckering is available at the entrance to the engineering building and through two entrances on the east side of Duckering. During the first closure, the northwest elevator may not be available, but the southeast elevator will be in service. Signs posted in the facility will help you find alternate routes into and around Duckering. Please do not enter the construction zones.
