Dean Lyon's
map for walking between Swearingen and Close-Hipp
(will open in new tab).
Dean Lyon's also provided advise.
-
The biggest time-saver is to get across Blossom St by using the pedestrian Blossom St bridge (circled in yellow).
South (down on map) of the bridge either:
- cut a corner by crossing the Blatt PE Center field (red route)
- go through the Blossom Street Garage (orange route).
- From the 300 Main building, use the red route.
- From SWGN, use the orange route unless a train is blocking Main Street,
in which case use the red route.
- Although the green route looks good on paper,
time-wise it is longer because of the red light at Blossom St and the very steep Henderson St hill.
Punctual arrival to class is expected.
An occasional late arrival
(e.g. had an exam just before class) can occur.
If you have a long walk to class, then put your cell phone away and a find
quick route. Avoid the red light at the corner of Pickens and Greene Sts by
using the Pickens St pedestrian bridge. Avoid crossing Assembly St by
using the tunnel under Assembly street.
If coming from the engineering part of campus, use the red route
or orange route in
Dean Lyon's map.
