Veterinary Medicine 3B

Close

UC Davis proposes to construct and operate the Veterinary Medicine 3B project. The project would consist of an approximately 124,700 gross square foot (gsf) (76,100 assignable square foot (asf)) four-story building encompassing: offices and workspace; research laboratories and laboratory support space, which includes 495 asf of biosafety level 3 laboratory space; rodent vivarium space; and centralized research support space, which could be used as future rodent vivarium expansion space. The proposed project would not increase the campus population, and would relocate existing members of the campus population from Surge 3 and Haring Hall in the core of campus to the Health Sciences District. The project would be located in the Health Sciences District of the central campus, adjacent to Parking Lot 50 and the Veterinary Medicine Teaching Hospital, west of Garrod Drive, and south of Hutchison Drive. The project would be designed to allow for a possible realignment of Garrod Drive approximately 250 feet north of the current alignment, and to allow for a possible bicycle crossing at a realigned Garrod Drive. Construction is anticipated to start in fall 2008 and last approximately two years. The construction timing for the realignment of Garrod Drive is uncertain and depends upon funding.
