What's
the latest on the University's proposed closing of Juniper Road?
On June 8, 2004, the Saint Joseph County Council unanimously
approved the University's plan to close Juniper at Douglas Road.
Traffic will be rerouted onto a new road just west of Ivy Road
on the east side of campus. The road will be paid for by Notre
Dame and will run mostly through University property. The plan
also calls for a realignment of Edison Road south of campus.
Juniper won't close until the new roadway is completed and approved
by county engineers. That isn't likely to happen before 2006.
