Tudor Road Advisory
Posted on August 20, 2021Tudor Road will be closed from Eau Claire Place to the old Seward Highway to replace 184 feet of water main from Friday, August 20 – Friday, September 3, 2021. Attached are two maps from AWWU which indicate the plan for traffic flow. (The TCP Eau Claire map above specifically focuses on the traffic pattern affecting ACC traffic.) How does this closure affect ACC traffic flow? Tudor Road westbound will be open to Eau Claire Place. To access the ACC parking lot, traffic will turn right off Tudor and continue all the way down (north) on Eau Claire around the circle and back toward Tudor Road. ACC students, staff, and visitors will have the option to turn right into either the north or south ACC driveway. Departure from campus is detailed on the above attachment labeled TCP Eau Claire as follows: Departing traffic from ACC will cross Tudor Road via a bridge across the median and go east. Eastbound traffic can turn left at MacInnes or continue to Lake Otis Road Parkway. Traffic departing from businesses and residential areas west of Fire Station 4 will travel on Tudor Road westbound to Eau Claire Place, turning right on Eau Claire Place and continuing north toward the Sanctuary (Park) following the circle and back toward Tudor Road to exit across Tudor on the meridian bridge and head east (just as ACC traffic will exit). There will be posted signs for Detour Routes. Local and pedestrian access will be maintained. AWWU advises they do not expect to have any water service impact on customers. This traffic pattern is expected to be in place by 6 am on Friday, August 20, 2021. There will be additional work outside of the Tudor Right-of-Way starting September 7, 2021, through September 24, 2021. Night shift work with partial nightly road closures will begin September 18, 2021, through September 24, 2021. If you have questions, please let me know. Thank you for your patience during this project. Linda StureCampus Director
