Due to ongoing construction in support of the University of Maryland, Baltimore's (UMB) electrical distribution project, disruptions to pedestrian traffic and parking are expected on Greene Street in May and June 2025.

Beginning Monday, May 12, through Friday, June 13, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, construction will take place outside the Health Sciences and Human Services Library (HSHSL) along South Greene Street. No parking will be available along the west side of Greene Street between West Lombard and West Pratt streets. Pedestrians will not be able to access the sidewalk on the west side of Greene Street and will instead need to cross over to the east side of Greene Street. This work will create noise from excavation, saw cutting, jack hammering, and core drilling.

Please note that these are the expected dates of the impacts, but they may shift or be extended depending on weather or unforeseen circumstances.

The electrical distribution project is helping to provide reliability to help UMB meet today’s demands while also building in additional capacity for future growth. To learn more about this project, visit the Facilities and Operations website. Please note that this project is separate from the University of Maryland Medical Center’s construction of the Roslyn and Leonard Stoler Center for Advanced Medicine, which is resulting in additional sidewalk closures along South Greene Street over the next few years.
