University City Roundabout – Loop Trolley construction begins March 23 with installation of a permanent roundabout at Trinity and Delmar Blvd., at the Lion Gates in University City.

The landscaped roundabout will create a new entrance for the Delmar Loop, increase safety and improve traffic flow.

Phase I of this 12-week project includes demolition and construction on the north side of the new roundabout.  Phase II will complete the south side of the roundabout. Each phase is expected to last about six-weeks.

Delmar Blvd – Work begins March 23 with installation of traffic control devices, followed by demolition of the north side of the existing temporary roundabout.

Westbound Delmar Blvd. traffic from Sgt. Mike King Dr. to west of Trinity will be redirected south of the temporary roundabout; two-way traffic will be maintained.

Parking for University City Hall will be via Sgt. Mike King Dr., just east of City Hall.

The pedestrian crosswalk at Delmar and Sgt. Mike King Dr. will not be available during construction. Pedestrians can cross Delmar using the crosswalk on the west side of Kingsland Ave.

Trinity Ave – Trinity Ave. north of Delmar will be closed to traffic.
