	I have been there during all stages of the decomissioning of v-wing and physics. Can't count the number of times I have been in there. The doors in the passageway between physics and biosci is still locked however. Also found the entrance to some sort of tunnel, or so the sign warned, but alas, locked. Some pretty awesome stuff down there in any case. Heh...Also, because of the construction, they are forced to spray paint symbols on the ground above where the tunnels are.

	I can tell you definatly that there is no old underground LRT station under the university itself. For four years i was a member of the security team at the U of A U Hospital and had quite a bit of time on my hands to explore a good portion of the maintenance tunnels underneath the complex. There are old service corridors, complete with alarmed doors, motion and infra-red sensors (you had to radio campus control before opening them) so I would not recommend exploring them. Some of the corridors lead to old workrooms and such and some even have very old tools and furniture abandoned in them. One of the most interesting sites I explored were under the old Aberhardt building which was used in the late portion of WWII as a vetrans' hospital and polio treatment center. One of the relics I found was an old iron lung, still wired in and presumably in working condition. There were some old sealed rooms and a couple of sealed tunnels, one that if you believe the stories connects into another set of WWII era tunnels, that were used by staff to get from the old nurses residence into the old hospital complex basement. Many of the old buildings are now gone, connected now to the new state of the art facility. Again, I would not recommend trying to get in here as there are biological as well as physical and chemical hazards, at least in the old hospital areas (There is a lv III containment lab in the new lab) as well as trained security, wide radio coverage on a secure frequency, alarms, campus and edmonton city police to contend with.
