West River Parkway to Close Between 4th and Portland Avenues July 29-August 4
This closure is necessary for a contractor hired by Hennepin County to perform maintenance on the Hennepin Avenue Bridge.
West River Parkway closes to motorized vehicle traffic between 4th Avenue North and the Stone Arch Bridge parking lot beginning Saturday, July 29, and ending Friday, August 4. The closure will be in place daily 7am-5pm, except Sunday, July 30, when it will be open for an event. Trails will remain open during this time.
West River Parkway is also closed to motorized vehicle traffic between 13th Avenue S and 22nd Avenue S until October for a separate bridge project led by the University of Minnesota. Access to both the Bohemian Flats parking lot and Stone Arch Bridge parking lot is available from the south.
Please follow detours, slow down, and stay out of work areas. The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board appreciates the public's patience while public infrastructure is repaired.
