Mayo Rochester construction update - new shuttle drop off location
Anyone who has visited Rochester Mayo's downtown campus within the last 6 months is aware of the construction underway for Mayo's expansion. More changes are happening.
Starting Thursday, May 14, the Mayo Building's newly remodeled east entrance will reopen. The east side faces the Kahler Hotel and Pease Plaza.
This is an update from Mayo's Consigner service:
What to expect
-As the Mayo Building's east entrance reopens, several operational updates will take effect:
-The Mayo east entrance will be open weekdays from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. It will serve hotel and local shuttle services for the duration of construction and will also be open for pedestrian access.
-Monitors in the Mayo east entrance lobby seating area will have a live video feed of shuttle arrivals and departures, along with overhead announcements, allowing patients to wait comfortably in the seating area with nearby restrooms until their shuttle arrives.
-To assist patients, a General Service desk near the Mayo east entrance will be staffed with wheelchair and transport support on weekdays from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m.
-The Mayo east entrance will feature a layered security model that, in addition to active and visible security, includes technology that helps to identify safety threats before they occur. Together, this approach enables real-time monitoring and quick responses across campus.
A series of other patient arrival and departure options will remain unchanged, while others will adjust through the end of the summer:
-The Mayo Clinic intercampus patient shuttle (for patients and caregivers) will continue service at the Gonda West and Charlton West entrances.
A series of valet updates will also support patients as they arrive at a changing downtown campus:
- The Hilton Building valet location closed on Thursday, May 7.
- A second valet lane will be added at the Mayo Building south entrance.
- Valet service will continue at Charlton, Gonda north entrance, Mayo south entrance and Baldwin.

Is Graham ramp still accessible via Center street?
@bajjerfan
I was just downtown today and saw that part of Cener Street west of Broadway was closed for a block.
After studying the downtown construction map, I suggest:
- From Broadway, take 2nd St SW to West
- After block, turn right on 1st AVE SW
- Go to the next intersection and then take left on Center Street, that part is still partially open.
- Then take a right on 3rd AVE NW, the one-way. And you should be able to get into the Graham ramp.
Things are constantly changing, so check the Rochester Street construction map.

TY I'll be there in less than a month. Something doesn't seem quite right.
Turn left onto 2nd st SW. To get to 1st st SW I would need to turn left and not right. A RT would take you to 3rd st SW. Correct?
@bajjerfan
You're right, it would be 1st Ave SW, I will get the original post corrected. I also made few other changes. Anything east of Center Street is SW, west of Center Street is NW
Should be
