MADISON, Wis. — Drivers will want to avoid the downtown area this weekend as 6,500 UW students move into campus housing. This year, ongoing road and utility construction will make the big move-in weekend even more hectic than usual. Several city streets will be closed and turned into one-way streets for several days this week.
Large message boards will be up in the campus area to help direct people to the appropriate places, according to a release from the university.
