An entrance to the UMaine campus in Orono is going to be closed for several months due to construction.

The Maine DOT says they'll be building a roundabout on Park Street and Rangeley Road.

The campus entrance will be closed from May 13th to August 30th.

Munson and Long Roads will be the best routes to use while Rangeley Road is closed.

DOT officials say they're working to address multiple concerns on Park Street including safety.

The area has been deemed a high crash location.

They say they'll be constructing a multi-lane roundabout with bypass lanes.
