Arrangements have been made with:

The path will be closed for Actavo to deliver the building modules for the Mount Preston Street Teaching Building Project.
It will provide additional central teaching space, specifically four flat-floor teaching rooms with a capacity for 100 people and four teaching rooms each with a capacity for 36 people. This building is expected to be completed in time for the start of the new academic year this October.
