Cabling for Swipe Card Installations Ernest Rutherford 7 – 11 April

Facilities Management Contractors will be working in the corridors on level 1 of the Ernest Rutherford building between 7am Monday 7 April until 4.30pm Friday 11 April to run cabling for the installation of swipe card access to room 122.

We are not expecting this work to cause any undue or prolonged disruption; however, the contractors will be working from ladders in the doorways. This should not block off access, but it may narrow the access down slightly while work is in progress.

We ask you to take care when you are passing through the area where the contractors are working and follow any contractor signage.

Please direct any queries to fmassist@canterbury.ac.nz.

Thank you for your patience as we complete these compliance works.
