The walkway in the 1800 block of College Drive was hit by the crane when it was being hauled on the back of a truck the morning of Dec. 7, which created structural damage and knocked it out of alignment. Temporary support towers were installed.

While the repairs were done, westbound traffic between Campus Drive and Cumberland Avenue was rerouted into the eastbound lanes of College Drive.
