TRANSPORTATION
Traffic congestion possible for Dole Institute opening

One of the biggest events in Lawrence history could attract one of the biggest crowds in Lawrence history when the Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics opens its doors for the first time Saturday.
Visitors won't be allowed to park at or near the Dole Institute because of increased security and traffic concerns unless a visitor has a special parking pass or a handicapped parking permit.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said students not attending the dedication ceremony should stay away from West Campus, unless they enjoy being stuck in traffic.
Todd Cohen, assistant director of university relations, expects 3,000 to 4,000 people will attend the dedication ceremony on Tuesday morning. He couldn't estimate the number of people visiting the Dole Institute over this weekend.
Lawrence Bus Company will provide free shuttle buses to ease the parking and traffic situation. The buses will carry visitors from designated parking lots to the Dole Institute.
Buses will run from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday, 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. Monday, and 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday. The buses will not run on Saturday because there are only two events
scheduled that day — the Memory Tent from 7 to 8:15 p.m., and Dole Institute tours from 5 to 8 p.m. Guests will be allowed to park at the Dole Institute for those events.
John Mullens, assistant director of the KU Public Safety Office, said the dedication attendance would be similar to a men's basketball or football game, but with considerably less parking.
The average attendance for a 2002 KU football game was 33,055.
Tom Mulinazzi, professor and chair of civil, environmental and architectural engineering, studies traffic and said he didn't think traffic would be a problem because the events were spread out over several locations and days.
However, workers at West Campus buildings are preparing for possible parking problems.
The Kansas University Endowment Association is closing its office Tuesday because of the traffic situation.
Andy Belot, Wichita junior, works at the Geological Survey in Hambleton Hall on West Campus. He said workers were concerned about the lack of parking the dedication might cause.
"We don't have enough parking as it is," he said. "There's not much we can do except inform everyone about the situation."
