Massachusetts Avenue north of Harvard Square will be closed while three 19th-century buildings are moved two blocks. Harvard University has spent five years planning the $1-million move, which will require the dismantling (拆除)of two light poles, several traffic signals(红绿灯), and ove
rhead wires that power buses.
Trees have been trimmed along the route to make way for the Ukrainian House, which is so wide it will straddle the median on Massachusetts Avenue during the trip. The structures are being relocated to make way for a 250,000-square-foot academic building. Traffic will be detoured (绕行)on local roads. Harvard has also hired 30 Cambridge police officers to help in part with crowd control.
哈佛大学耗资百万美元为大楼搬家
哈佛广场北边的马萨诸塞大道将关闭一段时间,三栋19世纪的建筑准备搬到两个街区外的地方。哈佛大学花了5年时间来筹划这项耗资100万美元的行动,他们将拆除两个电线杆、几个红绿灯和为电车巴士的输电线。
搬运路线沿途的树枝已经修剪过,为那座乌克兰大楼让路,这座大楼太宽,将会搬家途中横跨马萨诸塞大道的中间线。这些建筑物搬家是为一座占地25万平方英尺的学院建筑腾地方。驶经该路的车辆届时需绕行,哈佛还雇用了30名剑桥警员协助控制部分人流。 |
