Transformation has begun on the campus of Loma Linda University Health to make space for the new hospital complex scheduled to open in 2020.
July 10 marked the beginning of construction on Prospect Avenue west of Anderson Street, and this week, two buildings on the south side of Prospect came down to create space for the eventual entrance of the new hospital facility. Jtec Healthcare Construction Management Inc. is providing comprehensive construction management services.
This project has eliminated all on-street parking on the south side of Prospect Avenue, and the timed parking on the north side is scheduled to become off limits, as well, in the near future.
Drivers should instead park in the timed spaces surrounding Loma Linda Market, in lot X behind the Centennial Complex, or in the Shepardson Drive lot east of the Drayson Center super field. Shuttles are available to the School of Dentistry from lot X and Shepardson lot.
Once demolition is complete, Prospect Avenue will be shut down to vehicular traffic sometime in September.
