Campus Traffic and Water Usage Impacted


As a part of Cal Poly Pomona's maintenance program, Facilities Management will begin working on this year's campus proper valves replacement project on Monday, Aug. 15. The project will continue through Friday, Sept. 16.

As a result, various buildings on campus will experience temporary water losses throughout the repair phase of the project. Buildings that should expect to be without water at some point within this time frame are: 2, 7, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 28, 29, 30, 31, 31A, 32, 33, 34, 37, 38, 39, 45, 47, 48, 49, 50, 64, 65, 68, 68A, 71, 75, 81, 82, 83, 89, 91, 96, 114, 115, 138, the Rose Garden restrooms, and the Hazardous Waste Storage/Transfer Facility. The required building shut-downs are expected to begin on or about Friday, Sept. 2, and are expected to end by Friday, Sept. 16. The length of the independent shut downs will vary depending on the amount of work that needs to be done, with most impacts lasting from four to 12 hours.

In addition to temporary water shut-downs, some road and sidewalk traffic will also be impacted. As a result of road impacts, it may be necessary at times to reduce traffic to one lane only.

Traffic areas that are expected to be impacted by this project are:

  • University Drive adjacent to buildings 21, 22, 23, 91, and the driveway to Lot M.   
  • The walkway and service drive adjacent to Building 21.   
  • The Animal Center Pig Yard/s between University Drive and Building 37.   
  • Parking areas adjacent to Building 34.   
  • Citrus Lane adjacent to Building 45.   

If and when possible, water shut-downs will be scheduled to take place on Fridays and/or Saturdays.

Additional information will be provided as the work progresses. For questions or concerns, contact Facilities Customer Service at (909) 869-3030.
