ANN ARBOR—University of Michigan Regents, at their Feb. 17 meeting, approved replacing elevators in the Simpson Circle Parking Structure.

“The elevators have been in continuous operation since they were originally installed in 1963,” U-M Executive Vice President Robert Kasdin said. “Through the course of time there have been numerous breakdowns in the equipment of both elevator systems, and some parts for the elevator systems have become obsolete.”

The project is estimated to cost $700,000.
