Lift to be launched at CSU in Albury-Wodonga

22 MARCH 2018

Seeking to assist people with restricted movement has led to a significant renovation at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Albury-Wodonga.A specially designed lift has been fitted in the five-storey Gordon Beavan Building at the Thurgoona site to improve access throughout the building for people of all abilities.Built in the 1980s, the building’s previous lift could only stop at the first, third and fifth floors.“The new lift now services all floors, and allows people with restricted movement, including wheelchair access, to all parts of the building,” said Mr Stephen Butt, Executive Director of the CSU Division of Facilities Management.“Providing compliant and appropriate access for staff and students to all buildings is a priority for Charles Sturt University. This project is part of our ongoing improvement program across the University.”The new lift and other modifications including an exercise room will be officially launched by Dr Jennifer Munday, Head of Campus at CSU in Albury-Wodonga, starting at 10am on Friday 23 March in the Gordon Beavan Building, CSU in Albury-Wodonga, Ellis Street, Thurgoona.The formal launch will be followed by a morning tea.
