Abbotsford Campus Building Renewal Project
The scaffolding has been completed and certified around the first phase of the building. The white shrink wrap is in place to protect the building from rain and the debris net to contain falling materials into a contained area.
I told that depending on the angle, the building looks either like a cloud with rain or a UFO!
The removal of insulation is almost com
plete on the north and east sides of A-East with the south side scheduled over the next week.
It is exciting to see the project moving forward!
Classes started in Building K on 
Monday November 4th. Pictures can be found on the UFV flickr album.
A huge thank you to all our volunteers who helped with directions, furnished hot chocolate, and classroom locations!
The first group of replaceme
nt trees was planted today at various locations on the Abbotsford campus. UFV’s policy is to replant the same number, or more, of trees as have been removed.
The remainder of trees will be planted after remediation of Building A-East is completed.
As the hoarding is finalized outside of A-East, the wheelchair access is changing. A wheelchair ramp has been added to the stairs by the bus loop. This temporary ramp will be in place until late April/early May.
