MISSISSIPPI RIVER CLOSURE

Beginning on Tuesday, May 25th through Thursday, May 27th the Mississippi River will be closed between Lake Irving and Lake Bemidji at the crossing of the BNSF Railway bridge. BNSF crews will be replacing the wooden structure with a modern structure. Boaters should avoid the construction area and markers will be placed at the closure. The boat access at Lake Irving should still be accessible, but motorists should be alert for heavy equipment.
