BEMIDJI, Minn. – Motorists
entering Minnesota on Highway 2 in East Grand Forks will experience a
temporary lane closure on the southern eastbound lane of the Kennedy
Bridge on Mar. 10, weather permitting.
The
closure allows MnDOT bridge crews to perform an inspection in
anticipation of a two-year rehabilitation project scheduled to begin
this fall. That project includes a redesign of the bridge deck to add a
multi-use lane for bicycles and pedestrians.
The
inspection will begin after 8 a.m. and delays should be minimal.
Drivers are urged to slow down, eliminate distractions and obey all
signs.
