Blue Ridge Alert:

Please be aware that College Drive on the Henderson County Campus (HCC) will undergo repairs by NCDOT near the Patton Building during the week of Sept. 14-18.

College Drive will remain accessible during the repairs via a brief detour through the Patton parking lot (Lot A). Most parking will also remain available in front of the Patton Building.

As you enter and exit campus, please:

  • Follow all directional signage and cones.
  • Drive slowly and use extra caution in the work area.
  • Allow additional time for entering and exiting campus.

Entering the campus from Airport Road will remain possible. However, our Police Department recommends that those, who are able, use the South Allen Road entrances to avoid potential delays.

A campus map is available at www.blueridge.edu/hcc.

Thank you for your patience, understanding, and careful travel while these repairs are underway.
