Campus Improvements (Construction)

"It is a long letter because we have heard that community members first and foremost are eager to learn specifics about this process. Future communications will be briefer, but I am addressing the biggest call first: for transparency."

The internal directional signage is under repair in David King Hall and Exploratory Hall on the Fairfax Campus, and in Colgan Hall on the SciTech Campus.

Upcoming traffic impacts and closures related to construction at Mason Square in late January and early February 2024.

Rivanna River Way and nearby sidewalks have reopened near the Hub. Repairs are complete after a water main break. The ADA ramp at the main entrance to the Hub is also available.

George Mason University will host a virtual townhall on Monday, January 29, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. to present a West Campus update for community feedback, comments, and questions.

On George Mason University's Fairfax Campus, Rivanna River Way is temporarily closed near the Hub for repairs after a water main break. Sections of sidewalk at the main entrance to the Hub are currently closed, including the ADA ramp at that location. 

Due to weather conditions, the road closure previously scheduled for this weekend on Founders Way North has been rescheduled.
Founders Way North will be closed between the Van Metre Garage entrance and the west entrance to Vernon Smith Garage from Friday, Jan. 26, through Monday, Jan. 29. This section of roadway will be closed while a tower crane is removed from the construction site for Fuse at Mason Square.

Contractors will work to clear a storm water pipe blockage at the intersection of Patriot Circle and Mattaponi River Lane on Thursday, Nov. 16. There will be traffic controls and heavy equipment in the area between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. 

Landscaping work is underway on the plaza at Mason Square through Friday, Nov. 17.

The plaza at Mason Square will be closed for improvements starting Monday, Nov. 6, and will remain closed until March 2024. Construction fencing will block most of the plaza, but accessible pathways to the main entrance of Van Metre Hall will remain available near the plaza stage and near Hazel Hall.
