NIOSH building maintenance on March 23 will affect traffic flow on Biomedical Road

NIOSH will replace its nitrogen tank on Wednesday, March 23, from 8 a.m.-12 p.m., causing partial closure on Biomedical Road, the road between the new WVU Medicine Children's Hospital and the NIOSH building.

Workers expect to be able to keep one lane or both lanes open during the project, but the road may be closed completely for around 20 minutes to accommodate a crane. Flaggers will be on site to direct traffic, if needed.
