Reminder: Update on works to the blinds - repairs to begin in north-east corner of first floor on 9 January

3 January 2024

The Electrical Contractors, Dennis Johns, have now begun to adapt the scaffolding ahead of the scheduled repairs to the blinds, which will start on Tuesday 9 January and will be taking place in normal working hours. This will impact specific sections of the first-floor office areas on different days:

• The first floor has been divided into seven zones
• While a zone is being worked on desks cannot be used within that area
• See attached plan which shows where each zone is and when the work will be done in each:
• Blizard Blind Project - First Floor Layout - Daytime Working Sequencing - 7.12.23 revA [PDF 1,004KB]

Pease note: If you currently sit in Zone A (the north-east corner on the first floor), please speak to your centre manager who will be able to find you an alternative desk for a few days from Tuesday 9 February.

Dates are estimated and we’ll get a better sense when the works start, so please bear with us and be flexible if dates change slightly.

The scaffolding will be taken down from Thursday 8 February and will take a couple of weeks.

If you have any questions about the works, please contact me at rachael.parker@qmul.ac.uk.
