Don’t plan to turn onto Spring Garden from Tate Street around midday on Monday.
UNCG will hold a day-long event for new students, called Nav1Gate, on Monday August 19. Since the event involves large numbers of students walking from one place to another on and around the campus, several streets will be closed for all or part of the day. For drivers who will be only passing by or through campus, the main issue will be the closing of the on-campus section of Spring Garden Street from noon to about 1:30 p.m. Also, a block of Glenwood Avenue will be closed at the same time. Note that the section of Walker Avenue that will be closed is entirely on campus.
