Iowa State is set to begin construction to add more parking north of the Insectary next week.

The project to expand lot 33 will add approximately 140 parking stalls as well as a sidewalk along the west side of Winlock Road.

The university is warning students and staff that there will be heavy construction traffic on Winlock Road, which runs north and south just west of Stange Road, from crews on both this project and the biosciences building construction east of the Insectary.

Iowa State also has special instructions for anyone who parks in lots 30, 31 or 35 near the construction:

• Lot 35 (north of the biosciences building site): Use the marked pedestrian route on the west side of Stange Road to walk to campus buildings, avoiding Winlock Road.
• Lot 30 (north of the Genetics Lab) and Lot 31 (at Printing and Publications): Between 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m., drive to lots via Morrill Road, avoiding Winlock Road.

The project is expected to be completed by August.
