A portion of Douglas Road west of Juniper Road along the north edge of the University of Notre Dame campus will re-open June 28 (Wednesday), weather permitting.

This portion ofDouglashas been closed since late May to allow for it to be widened to four lanes from Juniper west to Holy Cross House.A new traffic signal also has been installed at the intersection ofDouglasandSt. Joseph Drive.

In addition, Juniper south ofPendle Roadwill close from June 28 to late July to re-route a section of Juniper directly south toDouglas, adjacent to the Notre Dame Federal Credit Union.Motorists coming to the Notre Dame campus are advised to use alternate routes, such as U.S. 933 orIronwood DrivetoDouglas.

The construction work represents the final phase of new public roads being constructed by the University leading to the closure in early August of the section of Juniper that bisects the Notre Dame campus.
