The City of Duluth has announced that the reconditioning project on Third Street is moving forward as planned, with traffic changes set to occur on August 26. According to the City of Duluth, the lower side of Third Street will be reopened on Monday, with reconditioning works necessitating the continued closure of the left lane from 12th Avenue E to Mesaba Avenue. Motorists will be redirected to use the right lane while the final utility work is being wrapped up.
Commuters are advised that no parking will be allowed within the construction limits due to the narrow lane remaining for traffic flow, as per the City of Duluth. Though most avenues will become accessible, they may have to be closed again as needed to allow for the safe completion of work at the intersections. This intermittent closure reflects the city's commitment to both progress and safety on this project.
Following the significant advancement on the lower side of Third Street, the traffic pattern will be switched. This change will facilitate the commencement of reconditioning efforts on the upper side of the street. Drivers and residents are asked to stay alert to these changes and to follow any posted signage or detours.
The project is expected to reach completion by the end of September, as detailed by the City of Duluth. For further details or concerns regarding the traffic impacts of the Third Street Reconditioning Project, the City of Duluth Engineering division has made themselves available at 218-730-5200.
