Psychology Car Park Crane Movement and Temporary Closure – 8 July

The Psychology Car Park, located on Arts Road, will be temporarily closed between 5am and 8am on Tuesday 8 July (refer to inset map).

There will be a crane operating from the closed carpark during this time while Facilities Management Contractors manage the lifting of equipment on to the roof of Psychology – Sociology (AR12) building. This means that there will be no access to the carpark during this time.

What do you need to do?

  • Find alternative parking if you expect to be on site prior to 8am.
  • Be aware of heavy machinery and crane movement on site.
  • Follow all redirection and access closure signage onsite.

Please direct enquiries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz

Thank you for your patience as we undertake this asset replacement works.
