Health Sciences Research Building (HSRB) traffic and deliveriesHSRB becomes shuttle stop beginning Sept. 28 Beginning Friday, Sept. 28, the stop for the Commonwealth Stadium employee parking shuttle service will be relocated from the front loop of UK Chandler Hospital to the front of the Peter P. Bosomworth Health Sciences Research Building (HSRB) on VA Drive. At that time, pedestrian traffic will increase through the HSRB lobby as employees make their way to UK Chandler Hospital and the rest of the medical center. (See map below.) UK HealthCare’s new parking structure on S. Limestone will partially open Nov. 19, with a new shuttle service transporting patients, families and visitors from the structure to UK Chandler Hospital’s main entrance and emergency department. Moving the shuttle stop to the HSRB is necessary to accommodate the patient shuttle arrivals and departures and also to address concerns expressed by medical center employees about the impact on patients of excessive congestion in the front loop of UK Chandler Hospital. Every effort is being made to minimize possible congestion around the HSRB. Shuttles need clear access and there is no place on VA Drive to accommodate waiting vehicles. Therefore, medical center employees may only be dropped off or picked up at the former LexTran bus shelter on Rose Street in front of the Chandler mural. Vehicles waiting to pick up employees must wait at Commonwealth Stadium until the employee is at the pick-up location. Other deliveries to the HSRB—such as food from nearby restaurants or campus catering—should be made only via the lobby entrance located on the north side of the building. Everyone’s patience, flexibility and understanding are appreciated as numerous construction projects continue on new medical center facilities to better serve Kentucky.
