Construction on a new parking lot at the former South Bend Medical Foundation site, located on the south edge of Memorial Hospital’s campus at Lafayette Boulevard and Navarre Street, will temporarily impact access to the emergency room entrance for both residents and emergency vehicles.

Starting Monday, July 14, residents and emergency vehicles will need to access the emergency room entrance from Main Street off Marion Street. During this phase of construction, Navarre Street will be converted to one-way traffic westbound only. Work is expected to be completed by Friday, July 18, weather permitting.

Once this phase of construction is complete, residential traffic will resume using Navarre Street to access the emergency room. Emergency vehicles will continue to use Main Street to access the entrance moving forward.
