ANN ARBOR—University of Michigan Regents, at their June 17 meeting, approved the proposed modifications and repairs of Fletcher Street Parking Structure.
“In 1990 as a part of a deck repair project, vehicular traffic was excluded from access to the top deck of the structure, but in response to the need for additional parking in the area, the proposed project will recapture 82 parking spaces on the plaza deck,” said U-M Executive Vice President Robert Kasdin.
“This project will also address infrastructure repairs to the plaza deck level and ramp that were scheduled to occur in conjunction with the parking structure project approved by the Regents in 1996.”
Construction will begin this summer, after the Ann Arbor Summer Festival, and is expected to be complete within six months. “The top of the structure will remain available for Summer Festival in future years,” Kasdin said.
The project is estimated to cost $760,000, with $400,000 for the conversion of the 82 parking spaces and $360,000 for other infrastructure repairs.
