Please Plan Ahead!
There is a lot of construction on campus and across Michigan's highways.
Plan to arrive early to make your experience more enjoyable.
Much of Michigan State University's campus is under construction this summer for many different projects. One of those projects directly affects Wharton Center Patrons. Phase 1 of the FRIB - Plant Science Utility Relocation project will shut down Wilson Road from in front of the Plant Biology Building to just before the Wilson Road entrance to the adjoined parking ramp. It will also close down Bogue Street adjacent to Wharton Center. The front drop off will still be accessible through out construction by using the traffic circle at Bogue Street and Shaw Lane.
Some key things to remember about Campus construction
- Patrons are advised to use adjoining parking ramp. Ramp is unaffected by construction.
- Barrier-free parking is available on all levels, ramp clearance 7'6".
- The Front Drop off is still accessible through out construction.
- Bus and oversized vehicle drop off follow signage.
