UM Considering Replacing Historic Bricks

The historic bricks on the University of Montana’s walkways have large gaps and frost heaves that create trip hazards and problems for wheelchairs.  The University Committee on Campus and Facilities is considering UM’s options to replace or re-lay the bricks to make the campus more compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.  The University will continue gathering public input into spring semester before making a final decision on how to handle the old bricks.  Reporter Kyle Schmauch covered the story with photographer Brandon Allen.
