The main building at Vasaparken reopened

The University main building in Vasaparken is now open again. But since there is still danger of the roof collapsing, all passage in and out of the building must be through the side entrance towards Aschebergsgatan.

It was during Friday’s heavy storm that a gust of wind brought down a part of the large scaffolding that was on the roof and thereby caused parts of the stone edge to fall down. The Vasaparken building was evacuated and closed down.

The building is now reopened for staff and visitors. But since there is still danger of the roof collapsing, the main entrance is sealed off with a metal fence. All passage in and out of the building must be through the entrance towards Aschebergsgatan.

During Monday at least, work will be done in front of the building, which limits the use of the parking spaces.

The elevator inside the building cannot be used. It will take a couple of days to repair it.
