Portion of North High Street closed, traffic changes planned on Prospect Street

North High Street

As part of Morgantown Utility Board’s continued construction on North High Street, the roadway will be closed from the intersection at Prospect Street to Maiden Lane from today (March 5) through March 13.

During this time, the North High Street exit for the top floor of the Mountainlair parking garage — lot ST-2 — will be closed. All drivers should both enter and exit the top floor of the garage through the College Avenue access point.

Additionally, because this road closure will cut off vehicle access to the portion of Prospect Street along Clark Hall, this section of the roadway will temporarily become a two-way street to accommodate drivers who park on the bottom floor of the garage at Area 9 — or at Stewart Hall — Areas 23 and 25 — and drivers accessing the Mountainlair loading dock.

This change will allow drivers to both enter and exit Prospect Street from University Avenue. Signs will be placed along University Avenue to guide the detour, and cones will be placed along the centerline of Prospect Street to accommodate the two lanes.

This schedule is subject to change due to weather and other unavoidable circumstances.

We appreciate your patience and understanding. For questions, call the Parking Management Office at 304-293-5502.
