Hoofers will be using a crane to remove keelboats from Lake Mendota Saturday 10/28 (or Sun 10/29 if the weather on 10/28 doesn't cooperate). Their traffic management plan (which was written for them by my supervisor) calls for them to maintain access for bikes and peds along the service drive that connects Park St with Lot 8/Limnology, and the Howard Temin Lakeshore Path beyond. They may have to use flaggers to temporarily stop traffic for a few minutes while boats are actually being brought overhead, but in general the connection to the path should remain open. Please let me know if you find that is not the case, and please exercise caution in the area over the weekend. An excerpt from a notice that went out to (car parking) permit holders today is below. Thanks, chuck
Beginning at 6 p.m. Friday, Oct. 27, Lot 8 will be blocked off to accommodate a crane that will remove boats from the water on Saturday, Oct. 28. Lot 8 permit holders may park in Lots 9, 10 or 34 on Saturday. Be advised several stalls on the west side of Lot 34 will also be closed for this event; they will be closed all day Friday and Saturday. No Lot 34 permit holders will be displaced. The project should be finished on Saturday, but if weather conditions prohibit completion, it will be rescheduled for Sunday, Oct. 29.
