Entrance Road Dedication – May 11
CI will open the new four-lane University Drive main entrance road with a public dedication and ribbon cutting ceremony on Friday, May 11 at 9:00 am. The ceremony caps an 18-month, $21 million road construction project designed to accommodate the eventual growth of the campus to 15,000 full-time equivalent students. The new ¾-mile entrance road connects Lewis Road with the central part of campus at Santa Barbara Avenue. The two-lane road previously known as “University Drive” will revert to its original name, “Camarillo Street.” It will primarily serve University Glen residents and businesses, but also will provide campus access.
If you are interested in attending the dedication ceremony, RSVP to Alissa Larreta at 437-8916 or email alissa.larreta@csuci.edu. Please be advised, you will not be able to walk or drive to the event location. Shuttles will be provided to transport all guests to the ceremony site. The shuttle pick-up will take place in the A-10 parking lot, across from Lindero Hall. Please plan to arrive by 8:15 am to take the shuttle to the ceremony site.
Complimentary automobile sunshades will be provided by Communication & Marketing to event attendees.
