City of Duluth provides construction update on 21st Avenue E and Glenwood Roundabout construction projects

The City of Duluth is providing schedule updates and information on the 21st Avenue E and Glenwood Roundabout construction projects. The City recognizes that there is significant public interest in these projects due to the traffic impacts caused by the closures, particularly with school starting.

The 21st Avenue E closure began on June 20, 2022 between London Road and E 2nd Street. The closure was recently extended to E 4th Street and will eventually extend to Woodland Avenue. E 4th Street will remain open at all times. The project is expected to be complete in the second half of October and 21st Avenue E will reopen at that time. The project schedule has been delayed due to unforeseen utility repairs that were required as well as material delays for storm sewer items and traffic signal components.

The Glenwood Street closure began on July 5, 2022 at the intersection of Glenwood Street and Snively Road. The Glenwood Roundabout project is a joint project between Saint Louis County and the City of Duluth and is taking place concurrently with County projects on Woodland Avenue and Snively Road. All three County-led projects are expected to be complete on October 15, 2022 and the streets will reopen to traffic at that time. This project is proceeding mostly on schedule due to the contractor’s efforts, despite also encountering material delays for storm sewer items.
