A new bicycle underpass being constructed on the campus of University of Missouri–St. Louis finally started to take shape Friday (June 15), as crews used a large crane to put sections of the underpass in place.

A section of Arnold B. Grobman Drive on UMSL’s North Campus was demolished earlier this month to make way for the bicycle underpass, part of a trail that will run east from Parking Lot D under Grobman Drive and continue east behind the north and south Millennium Student Center parking garages. It will connect with the Ted Jones Trail where it meets Grobman near Florissant Road.

Traffic will be detoured from this area of campus for at least two more weeks. To find out more about the new bike trail and underpass on campus read this earlier UMSL Daily story.
