The F7 car park will be closed from Monday 26 October to allow for the construction of a new Science Precinct chamber substation. The car park will be fenced off and used as the construction site compound until the site work and building shell is completed, which is expected to be in March 2016.

Impact
The F7 car park disabled parking spaces will not be accessible during this time. Six new alternative disabled parking spaces will be available in the C1 carpark at the rear of the Security Building. Staff who require assistance as a result of these changes should contact Campus Wellbeing, Health and Safety or Security Services.
The F7 car park entry and exit will be reconfigured to create a threshold to the substation and also improve the circulation of the car park and access to Building F7B. A new pedestrian footpath, landscaping and street lighting will be provided on the Research Park Drive frontage.
About the project
The new chamber substation will support the Campus Master Plan, providing power for the next 50 years to 50,000m2 of new science and medical research floor space, and contribute to a reduction in the long term campus electricity supply costs.
