Vanderbilt breaks ground on Central Utilities Initiative Phase II; reminders about navigating construction on campus

The Roberts Academy construction site will close select parking lots, including full closure of lot 76A and partial closure of lot 77, beginning Jan. 1, 2025.

It's time to celebrate! The Central Utilities Initiative Phase I is nearly complete, including the Highland Energy Plant that will open in January 2025.

Vanderbilt's utilities upgrades will roll on in 2025, starting with the groundbreaking on CUI Phase II in early January. This work will transition the across 25th Avenue roadway east into Central Neighborhood.

The work will take place on the promenade between the Student Life Center and the Studio Arts Building, behind the Studio Arts Building and behind Stapleton in Branscomb Quad. It will also include the demolition of the University Club.

There will be accessible, safe pedestrian and vehicle pathways throughout the project to minimize disruption on campus. Construction noise is expected during work hours -- 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

This interactive Campus Map allows pedestrians to get the latest route around construction sites to any location on campus. This map also has more details about the timeline of all projects on campus.

All pedestrian and vehicle routes are subject to change, updates will be shared in MyVU and on the Facilities Instagram and X accounts.

Vanderbilt offers a variety of transportation options for your commute, including the Commute Concierge service. For more information or to request Commute Concierge services, please fill out this request form or email [email protected].
