Arcata - Humboldt State University has begun work on accessibility and safety upgrades in the vicinity of Harry Griffith Hall that will require closing B Street to through-traffic from Harpst Street to 17th Street for about eight weeks.

Vehicle access north of Harpst on B Street has been re-opened. Pedestrian access along B Street is available. Traffic to 17th Street will continue to be detoured via Union Street.

The work marks the final project portion of the year-long remodel of Harry Griffith Hall that includes better access for the disabled, a new elevator, new fire alarm and refurbished finishes. Financing comes from capital renewal funds and campus deferred-maintenance accounts.
