Section of Idaho Street closed due to safety concerns
[DULUTH, MN] The City of Duluth is closing the section of Idaho Street that enters into and exits out of the Morgan Park neighborhood, effective immediately, following a structural review of the railroad bridge that passes over that section of the street.
The structural review raised structural safety concerns due to advanced deterioration on the CN Railroad-owned and maintained bridge, and passage beneath the structure is no longer advised. The affected section of Idaho Street will remain closed until further notice. The public is asked to observe signage and barricades in the area.
The Morgan Park neighborhood will still be accessible via the main entrance point at 88th Avenue W.
