Drivers will not be allowed to turn left onto Old Taylor Road and should continue up Manning Way to Gertrude Ford Boulevard if they wish to go north.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Markers will be in place to guide motorists.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It is our hope that providing this additional exit will alleviate the congestion on Manning Way during these peak times,&#8221; said Mike Harris, director of parking and transportation.<\/p>\n<p>The campus entrance at Chucky Mullins Drive will remain closed through the summer so a roundabout can be built at where Hill Drive and Hathorn Road intersect with Chucky Mullins Drive. The project is expected to improve traffic flow on the south side of campus.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Drivers have been using other entrances to campus since the work began in May. It&#8217;s expected the new outlet from Manning Way will be in place until the work on the Chucky Mullins Drive roundabout is complete.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 The University of Mississippi will open an exit Monday (June 12) to alleviate traffic congestion on Manning Way and the south side of campus as construction of a roundabout on Chucky Mullins Drive continues through the summer.&nbsp;
