Beginning June 2, work will start on Stage 2 along Main Avenue. When this starts, both First Avenue and Main Avenue (within the project limits) will be closed to thru traffic. The detour will follow 13 St S and 2 Ave S.
Business access will be maintained, but keep in mind you may need to enter from a different area than you're used to. Please check with your destination to find out the best way to get to them.
As always, we appreciate your patience and understanding as the project progresses.
Other Reminders
-
Starting Tuesday, May 20, at 9 am, and every third Tuesday of the month through October, MnDOT will resume hosting monthly Coffee & Construction public meetings at the Hjemkomst Center, 202 1 Ave N. Representatives from MnDOT, Ames Construction and the City will share updates and answer questions about the current progress on the 11 St underpass. We encourage businesses and residents to attend to learn more about upcoming Main Avenue closures starting June 2. We hope to see you there!
-
Train horns have resumed in the Downtown Quiet Zone during construction hours (Monday - Friday, 6am - 7pm). This is a requirement of the railroad, and we appreciate your understanding as worker safety is prioritized.
-
Moorhead businesses are open during construction! If your destination falls within/near the work zone or along the detour routes, please check in with the business to determine the best route there.
- Never enter an area that's blocked by barriers or cones. It is not safe to drive, walk or bike around barricades, even in areas where workers aren't present or active. Those boundaries are set up for your safety. There are signed detours installed for both motorists and pedestrians. Please use those routes.
