A few projects are presently being undertaken that will affect university traffic in the coming months. Two of the projects being completed are construction to North Tryon Street and construction taking place near the Toby Creek Greenway. Both projects are in preparation of the much awaited light rail system that will soon be serving UNC Charlotte.

Once the UNC Charlotte Main Station opens, members of the campus community will be able to reach UNC Charlotte Center City in approximately 20 minutes, while avoiding traffic congestion and additional parking costs, said Shelly Theriault Muhl, communications officer with the Department of Facilities Management, in a press release.

The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is rebuilding two of the bridges on North Tryon Street closest to its intersection with Mallard Creek Church Road. Construction on North Tryon began last Wednesday, Oct. 15. Students and faculty accessing UNC Charlotte on the southbound portion of North Tryon during this time will have noticed that the southbound lane now ends at the intersection with Mallard Creek Church Road.

This portion of North Tryon Street from the intersection will be closed for construction until around May 2015. As the southbound lane is closed, motorists will need to use available detours on Mallard Creek Church Road, West WT Harris Boulevard and I-85. The northbound lane, however, will remain open until the new bridge for the southbound lane is completed.

In light of the road closures, UNC Charlotte commuters are encouraged to adjust their routes and driving schedules accordingly to accommodate for increased traffic.

Patrons who use the 11U bus are notified that the route servicing UNC Charlotte on North Tryon has been adjusted to accommodate construction. The Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) can be contacted for more information on these changes.

The construction of new bridges on North Tryon are part of the preparations for the Light Rail system and its arrival upon UNC Charlottes campus. Other construction works are also being undergone to accommodate the light rail. Recently, trees have been removed in front of Miltimore Hall to make way for tracks and the station that will serve UNC Charlotte. This project is being managed by the City of Charlotte Public Transportation Department and is expected to be completed in 2017.

The project to connect the light rail with UNC Charlotte will require a large portion of ground to be elevated to allow for the light rail tracks to be installed. This will require thousands of truckloads of fill material, Muhl said.

Muhl also assured that measures to prevent erosion will be taken to reduce the environmental impact of construction.

With students heading to college in record numbers, local institutions are constructing everything from new dormitories to academic buildings, hoping to attract the best and brightest students and professors. And many of the projects are emphasizing sustainable design.

The good news is that a number of major institutions [are] poised to move forward with major expansion projects, said Richard T. Anderson, president of the New York Building Congress. Indeed, a recent report from the group found that despite a slowdown in construction by the government sector, colleges continue to invest in their futures.

The citys 105 universities and colleges have spent a combined $2 billion on maintenance and new facilities in each year from 2010 to 2012, and are expected to put in another $10 billion through 2017, or an average of $9.5 million each.

Since 2003, the City University of New Yorks student population has increased by nearly 50 percent, requiring an expansion. According to CUNYs Vice Chancellor for Facilities Planning, Construction and Management Iris Weinshall, CUNYs goal, along with new projects, is to redevelop at least a quarter of its facilities with a Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design (LEED) certification by 2017. As these include many historic and landmark buildings, Weinshall noted, this is a huge and important task.

Lehman Colleges new Science Hall, in fact, which opened for classes in spring 2013, has a LEED Platinum certification, the top of four levels, from the US Green Building Council.

And Lehmans LEED Silver four-story School of Social Work is the first of a three-phase campus within a campus dedicated to the sciences.

The facility was constructed with $70 million in funding provided by New York State through the CUNY Capital Program. Funding of $1.5 million for the rooftop greenhouse was provided by an allocation from the New York City Council.

Other recent projects, including the CUNY School of Law and the Summit residence hall at Queens College, have Gold certification, while Hunter Colleges School of Social Work and Bronx Community Colleges North Hall and Library have Silver.

There are also several research facilities in the CUNY construction pipeline, including an advanced research complex on the City College campus in Harlem, and the new College of Staten Island dormitory, which will aim for LEED Gold.

Among the sectors containing the best defensive stocks, are utilities, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, and consumer goods.

The utility sector has enjoyed a fantastic economic backdrop. These companies borrow heavily against their assets so the record low borrowing costs while steady inflation increases bills has led to record profits. Water utilities Severn Trent and United Utilities, both have steady income and dividends.

Shares in the water sector are driven on a five-year regulatory cycle. The water sector regulator Ofwat is currently in negotiations to agree the prices from April 2015 to 2020. There is still disagreement between the two parties and this creates risk for shareholders. The regulator could make the industry much less profitable by forcing it to cut prices. The final decision will come on December 12, so, if you are thinking about investing in UK water utilities, it could be a good idea to wait until after that.

SSE, National Grid and British Gas owner Centrica make up the power sector options. Shares here have been hit by political wrangling over the household energy bills, but they remain steady dividend payers for now.

The tobacco companies may be facing slowing sales in developed economies but this is being offset by price rises that the addicted customer base keep paying. The income and dividends are stable for the time being.

The pharmaceutical sector is undergoing something of a renaissance, with new drug discoveries and takeover activity all boosting the shares.

The consumer goods giants Unilever and Reckitt Benckiser have been hit by slowing sales in emerging markets. However, the shares of both companies have easily outperformed the wider FTSE 100 as people will still buy toothpaste, washing powder and washing up liquid even through a recession.

Long term investors would do well to make sure they have a balanced portfolio including some defensive options.

At her home in the Clintonville neighborhood, Faith Durands desk is covered in a pile of papers, books and FedEx mailers.

Dirty dishes sit in the kitchen sink, even though they are a bit obscured by the impressive marble countertops.

On a recent afternoon in early October, she has been to two grocery stores in search of fontina cheese for a recipe. Having no luck, she has settled on Swiss instead.

For Durand, executive editor of the popular food and recipe website The Kitchn, life is much like that of any other workingwoman: Shes busy.
