Traffic and Transit Impacts
Roads on and adjacent to campus will be closed during this production at the following days and times:

Traffic in these areas will be detoured, and drivers should plan routes to campus accordingly. Drivers needing to enter/exit driveways or parking areas along closed routes on campus should present their UNC One Card to traffic monitors for access. Impacted permit holders will also receive an access pass by email.
Chapel Hill Transit will implement detours on impacted routes. While Chapel Hill Transit will make every attempt to maintain schedules, riders should plan for delays due to rerouting. Visit Chapel Hill Transit for information on detours and alternate stops.
Parking lot and road closure schedules are subject to change due to weather or other unforeseen circumstances. Please check this page for updates and allow time for planning alternate routes and parking as needed.
