TIP/Campus Master Plan

A draft version of the University of Wisconsin’s campus master plan – a blueprint for campus development in the next 20 years – will be discussed by campus officials in a media briefing Tuesday, April 26 at 11 a.m. in room 1420 of the WARF Building, 610 Walnut St.

The draft is the result of extensive public discussion of the plan during the course of the past few months, involving the campus community, neighborhood groups near the campus, city officials and others.

The draft plan includes the redevelopment of the east campus area as an arts and humanities district, the proposed Wisconsin Institute for Discovery, enhancements to transportation services and utilities on campus and many other projects that will change the face of the campus in years to come.

A final plan, to be released in September, will be a refinement of the draft plan.

The campus master plan is a long-term framework for development of buildings, green space, transportation systems and utilities. It details a vision for campus development in coming years, with an eye toward making the campus more livable, workable and sustainable.
