Beginning Monday, Nov. 15, a preventative maintenance project impacting the elevators in Gateway Garage will begin. 

Elevator service will be impacted throughout the project. Throughout most of the repairs, two elevators will be down at a time and a third will remain in service. Simultaneous closures of all three elevators may occur.  

Impacts to pedestrian walkways and the alley along the west side of the garage are also expected. 

A timeline for the project is as follows:
