LVH–Cedar Crest Construction Update
A Road With a Reason
Employee expressway
Approximately 8,000 cars enter LVH–Cedar Crest‘s main entrance every day. This new entryway for colleagues will ease traffic.
Every day, about 8,000 cars travel through our Cedar Crest Boulevard entrance. A new entrance for colleagues along Fish Hatchery Road is changing that. The benefits are twofold. “It leads you directly to employee parking areas and alleviates congestion at the main entrance for patients and visitors,” says security director Jerry Kresge.
Initially, only colleagues who park in the stone lot (4A) should use the new entryway. When construction concludes on a nearby section of the ring road, all colleagues (except for those assigned to the five-story parking deck) should use the new entrance.
You also must use this road to access the Healthy You Center. A dedicated turning lane off Cedar Crest Boulevard and Fish Hatchery Road makes the commute onto campus safe and convenient.
Here’s what else is happening outside this month:
- A Big Blue H will be attached to the pedestrian bridge.
- Permanent, internally lighted signs will be installed. They will direct patients and visitors to specific locations using a color code. For example, the 1230 building is identified by an orange circle on both the signs and the building’s entrance. Various colored circles identify different buildings.
In January, construction begins on a temporary cafeteria and dining area located in the space currently occupied by the library and educational conference centers (ECC) 1 and 2. Look for more information in January’s CheckUp.
