Phase 4 of Superior Street Construction Begins

DULUTH, Minn.-The final phase of the Superior Street reconstruction project began today.

Phase 4 of Superior Street reconstruction will be done in two parts, which include finishing vault work and installing concrete roadways, sidewalks, and amenities.

This includes work between 1st and 3rd Avenues West, where temporary asphalt was laid down last year for the winter. That will start Monday and end by Grandma’s Marathon in June.

Work will then begin on 3rd Avenue East to 4th Avenue East until August.

Leaders from Northland Construction say the project has been tough on businesses, but in the long run, it’s for the best.

“Neighboring businesses and people that live near by, have been great partners. I think they are excited to see the end is in site as are we,” said Annie Harla, the public information coordinator for the Superior Street reconstruction project.

Some of the projects main goals include upgrading the utilities and of course redoing the stretch of road.
