Good news! The new Ligon Street Bridge is officially open, offering the quickest and safest route to the Material Support Warehouse (MSW).

Say goodbye to the detours and construction delays on Beryl and Western. Now, it’s a smooth, direct drive from campus via Sullivan Drive, which becomes Ligon Street after crossing Method Road. No stop signs, no tricky left turns—just a clean, efficient path to and from the MSW.

This new bridge is a key milestone in the broader I-440 widening project. While construction continues in other areas, the Ligon Street connection is ready and waiting to serve you.

We look forward to welcoming you to the MSW—now easier to reach than ever.
