Xcel Energy is nearing 5th Street with their structural work and following behind with their underground cable work from Washington to 3rd.  Their second crew is south of 8th Street and moving into the next block next week between 9th and 10th.

The Sanitary Sewer work is wrapping up between 10th and 11th Streets.  This work is progressing toward the final tie-in at the 12th Street intersection.  This work at 12th will require closure of the intersection to cross traffic on 12th from 10am Wed 11/20 to 6am Mon 11/25.  The Hennepin traffic, 1-lane in each direction, will be maintained through the intersection.
