Temporary closure of Harbor Drive along the DECC waterfront begins October 23

 

 

[DULUTH, MN] Beginning Monday, October 23, a portion of Harbor Drive will temporarily close for seawall and Harbor Plaza reconstruction (see the map below). Pedestrians and cyclists will have a detour along existing pathways and the Cross-City Trail for the project duration, which is expected to last 12 months. Construction traffic and DECC deliveries will be able to access this area, but the public will be prohibited.   Please stay clear of construction zones and exercise extra caution near this area.

 

The work will repair the deteriorating seawall to better accommodate maritime transportation and docking, as well as create a new public plaza with separated pedestrian and bike trails. The repair work is supported by Minnesota State bonding and a grant from the U.S. Economic Development Authority.
