As part of the new building construction project that will house the UPEI Faculty of Medicine, patient medical home, Psychology Training Clinic, Adult ADHD Clinic, and interprofessional health simulation and clinical training centre, the access road (also known as Alumni Road) from the intersection of University Avenue and Enman Crescent to the intersection of the campus perimeter road and the sports fields will be closed from June 23 to August 14.
