Creating a universally accessible campus

UB is striving to make more handicap-accessible features available on campus, as well as eliminate barriers and improve options for disabled students, in accordance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)."These projects have been going on for years and they continue in phases," said Robert Shibley, director of urban design.Some repairs were done over summer break, such as widened doors placed in Capen Library, the renovation of the School of Pharmacy on South Campus, ADA improvements in Alumni Arena, pavement crack repairs on roads on North Campus and ADA site work on the pavement and tunnels of South Campus.Utility tunnels on South Campus were excavated over summer and replaced with new piping that goes around the entire campus, in addition to new lighting and security systems.
